So I just got these wheels today...I got them second hand.
I love the ccw classics, LOVE THEM. These will not fit my 996 turbo as is. I was led to believe they would and took someone at face value.
So here is my predicament... Keep them and totally redo them to exactly what I want or give someone the opportunity to get their hands on some wheels that otherwise they can't.
Here is what I was told... 18x9 front and 18x11 rear...that part is true.
CCW does not release "offsets" they use backspacing, so bear with me a bit here.
After I measured, it looks like approx 45mm front wheel offset +/- 2mm and the rears are around a 69 to 70 again with some margin of error.
I would say minimum polish the lips...the center look decent, but not perfect.
They were used on a narrow body race car (I know, but he told me they were not a typical NB offset and that they would fit a widebody) I figured they'd be closer to say a 50mm rear then I could make do with a spacer.
Anyway, the other issue is I have to decide rather quickly as I am in need of rear tires. The wheels will dictate what size i buy.
If interested, let me know. Possibly willing to trade for wheels. I would prefer to stick with 18in. Looking for 2100. I'm in the Dallas area if anyone is local.
