Trailslide, what wheels are you running? If you still have the IRS in there, you're wheels must stick out horribly past the fenders.

YES, they did stick out terrible and kicked up rain like a formula 1 car
but IMO, I like keeping my cars quiet, simple, clean, & fast. The car looked amazing. I traded the 18's cuz I couldn't even hook in 3rd
18's
17's & raised a bit

Well my dad has 4 corvettes! My dad is teh c00lest! Anyways, I have had 18x10's on my stock body, and the Evo X has more room, so I dont see why an 18x11 wouldnt fit.

I had 18's on it, but traded them for a set of 17" OEM looking replicas that were 17x9 in the front and 17x12.5 in the rear. I did have the IRS still, i used a small spacer and they fit fine, no rubbing or hitting the IRS bolt.

I wasn't aware they made a OEM replica wheel in a 17 X 12.5". 
I had the 17 X 10.5" replicas on my silver 04' and it looked just like yours with 315/35 BFG DR's on it. I just bolted them on and didn't have any issues. It was close to the frame rail though.

What Brand/Model wheels are you planning on using? The only ones I've found so far that are not as heavy as lead are the WedsSport SA-70TT. Comes in 18x11 (STD face, Hi pad) but I have not found a source for them yet. I need a set for my EVO IX. . . (currently running Weds original SA-70 in 18x10)
