I know there are lots of TSW pics on the forum, but why not a couple more...

1- Rear 20"
2 - Front 19"
3 - whole car

TSW wheels clear the Z06 big brakes - fills out those big wheels really well

Sweet!
Looks as if you've lowered it to the max? Will the front wheels rub on compression in a turn?

thanks! I maxed out the bolts, cut the front bushing almost fully off, the rear bushing about 60% off. no rubbing in the front, even under extreme circumstances (.8-1.0'ish G and a dip in the road even for some more compression). the rears actually rubbed for a bit - not at first with the stock brakes... but I had to add a 3mm spacer to clear the z06 brakes. after I raised the rear a tiny bit, got an alignment and shaved down the inner rear fender, I made enough clearance!

What offset are those cf5's in the rear? Im almost scared to go up to a 295 due to my 20x10.5 +65 out back. Especially since I load my car down when I go to the track and other occasions.

That reflection on the hood makes it look like you have a hood scoop. Beautiful car!

That's a great look. Forgive my ignorance though, is that tire combination still ok for daily driving or is it purely for racing?
Beautiful.
