Wheels are 18" x 7.81" in the front. The offset is 15.2 mm but the easier,
not confusing backspace, is 4.500" Wheel is the std 5 x 4.75" bolt
pattern.
The id three inches inside the wheel mounting flange is 196.2mm yielding
about 5mm clearance to the late model C5 Corvette brake calipers.

Rears are highly negative for clearance to fender and the modified
coilover suspension.
