I’ve been dragging this out because I’ve been a cheap fuck with my cars lately. The rear wheels are peeling and I need new front tires…so why not replace it all?  
Thinking of a set of knock off C6 zo6 motorsports but really up to any suggestions. Not too sure of what I want. This POS needs a clutch and syncros at some point too, but need tires to drive it haha.  
End KK/pjb rant…now suggestions?

I’ve been considering selling my c6 z06 reps. They’re plastidipped matte black. I’ll let you know if I buy a different set.

I actually like those. Very close to a ccw. Not sure about 19s though and it looks like they don’t have the bolt pattern in 18s. I want to drive this more and I’m worried I won’t have enough tire. The last thing I wanna deal with are bent rims.

Yea, stock sizes. These reproductions come in stock C5 and one up sized too. Maybe 19s would be fine, just can’t picture what kind of sidewall I’d have.
