Vette(s): 1972 LT-1 convertible with factory air. 2017 Black Rose Grand Sport M7 convertible.
Carr's Corvettes here in the Dallas/Ft Worth area made his own spacers and mounted Z06 wheels on a '71.  You might contact him.  http://www.carrscorvettesandcustoms.com/

As far as his abbreviated cuss words, no biggie.  The grammar on this site is atrocious.

Vette(s): 1968 coupe bought in 1999, 2nd owner, 427 custom built, 4 speed (M20), 3:36 posi rear end, Recaro seats, Intro wheels, Nitto tires, Flowmasters, etc. Painted nite race metallic blue.
Hi Louis: Check with Intro Wheels. I bought a set of 18 inch billet wheels from them in 2004. They were made for my car, 1968 Coupe. The front tires are 245/40ZR18 Nitto NT-555 and the rears are 275/40ZR18. The wheels are 18x9 upfront and 18x10 in the rear. They are their Pentia wheels, which are 5 spokes with nice deep dishes. Since they were manufactured for my car I do not have spacers. They are inherent in the wheels, they do not protrude and never had any rubbing of any kind. The owner know very well the old Vettes. You can find them at www.introwheels.com. If you see a dark blue 1968 in there, that is mine, which is currently being restored. Hope this helps. Joaquin
