..went to my performance shop that also sells high end wheels, and they told me they could get me some color matched concords for approx 5k..i know tony and another vender also sells this wheel but i try to stay loyal to my shop as they have always done me right with my sc-pedders-and other stuff.. looking to go with 22x10 and 22x8 ...any input on tires, wanted nto5,but i heard they do not make it in a 305...any help on good tires for 22,s...also i could use any input on the wheels pictured below ,similar paint scheme - will be iom and black ..iom rim or black rim ? thanks guys

Awesome another C5 with custom wheels. I would suggest you have the shop talk your application for sizing over with Cor. Those widths of 8 and 10 seem pretty narrow for a custom wheel. Good luck.

showstopper · 08-06-2010, 09:08 PM

I agree. Go with wider wheels.

mikepage0007 · 08-06-2010, 09:09 PM

well thats what i,m looking for , some advice ..it was talked about today and he made a phone call...i,m just nervous about sizing as my camaro has 1 1/2 drop with coilovers..and i keep reading about wheels hitting brake lines,calipers,tpws sensors ,fenders...i would like to do 11 and 9 but i,m afraid i will have some issues...and since they are custom , they can,t go back on shelf...but he is going to talk with cor monday , explain my dropp and see how wide i can go with ABSOLUTELY NO ISSUES. thanks

I have coilovers also with no rubbing issues. Cor has nailed the offset on these cars. I couldn't ask for a better look. I bolted mine on with zero issues.

mikepage0007 · 08-06-2010, 09:23 PM

what tire size are you running, are they 25 or 30...they look like 25..i,m really trying to stay with more meat on sidewalls if possibe...just to help keep the ride as least stiff as possible..oh, looks really good on that color..

showstopper · 08-06-2010, 10:29 PM

The fronts are 30's the rears are 25's. The ride is surprisingly not that stiff. I was expecting it to be worse.

I want my wheels so bad...

may i ask , why 25,s on rear , hard to get wide tires that are 30 ? ...just trying to see reason for doing , especially if you were worried it might make rough ride ,more clearance for drop? don,t take it wrong , just learning as much as possible.i guess i really will have 5 weeks to get all tire questions answered , but i like to know more

thanks

That width with is nearly impossible to find in a 30. Plus it would look taller than the front also.

The paint theme on the Porsche looks more attractive to me. Cor makes some nice wheels. Buying local usually means sales tax, keep that in mind on a $5K purchase. That could be $350 in Florida

Buying across state lines = no sales tax.

i agree , i am taking that into consideration...but also no shipping either,...i also like the porsche but thinks it needs a small back pinstripe ..thanks nine ball.. i know that you usually don,t endorse to many wheels , except the best...

Nine Ball · 08-08-2010, 01:07 PM

You definitely pay shipping, even when buying local. The shop just doesn't tell you that you are. Unless you live nearby to Cor, then the shop might just pick them up from the factory. A set of wheels is usually $120-150 to ship, even in the same city.
