I think I'll do that. I think there'd be a market for 305's on all corners.

Then... if you go to page 2, post 36, you'll see he added a set of 20's up front. Here is the pic to save you the clicking. I've been considering doing this on my car.

Hmmm! This could be a good route to go. Maybe purchase a set of 20" Nurburings for the street and then have a matching pair of 18x9.5 for the drag strip.

The weights on my list I personally scaled myself. All Camaro wheels too. Weights will vary depending on offset, that lug pad is very thick on the Camaro offset and tend to weigh a little more. Also, you guys are splitting hairs comparing weight between the Nurburgring and Forgestar wheels. Both are made with the same rotary forging process and both are very lightweight for cast wheels. Saving 1-2 lbs at the hub doesn't matter much, saving 5+ lbs per wheel and you'll start to see benefits at the track.

Cool, I'll go by your numbers then. I thought you had jut read got them from Forgestar.

Anybody else with 18's up front?

Got my 18" TSW Nurburgrings installed. I'm loving the extra traction of the NT05R drag radials and weight reduction of running 18's

Wow, those look nice.
The machined finish looks really good with your car.

I was the very first person to run the Nurburgrings way back when. Now they're a very popular wheel and for good reason. They're hard to beat for the price. I can't think of a lighter, better looking wheel for the money.

Thanks~ Now I have to go run her in the 1/4 to see how well I can get her to hook up. Just wish it wasn't 110 degrees in Vegas

I looked at several different wheel brands, but went with TSW after seeing pics of your car and a few others on C5. The cost and weight of these rims was the deciding factor for me.,
