Where did you go? You can ask here too as a few of us are vette owners as well. Don't lump us in with everyone.

sry man but these guys on their forums really pissed me off.
my question is wheel size. 18/18 r perfect for race but no street appeal 20/20 r all show and no go. whats a good set up for the balance between the 2 coz i plan on trackin on the wheels and i want something clean for everythign. something to fill in the wheels gap. i was thinking 19/19 but havnt seen anyone run that. 19/20 works but idk about the 20s in the rear, they might be too big to handle around a corner.

I've seen a few setups with the 19/19 and it looks pretty good. You could always stick with the conventional 18/19 route but it pales in comparison to the looks of a 19/20 setup. Are you building a track car or just want to change up the look?

Maybe they are a little sensitive about buying a car from a bankrupt automaker.

You probably know the answer to your own question then. I'm no racer so I thought the trade off with a 20 in the rear would be worth it. I don't know what handles better when it comes to different size wheels on the corners but the vette comes standard like that so I have to believe the difference can't be too great.

Yup vette owners are by and large aholes. To answer your question the best setup IMO is widening your stock rims for slicks/track tires and running a street 19/20 or 20/20 forged rim.

Btw I beat you.

Did you go on the forum and ask a noob question without searching and get flamed? Sounds familiar.

No as long as your 20s are high quality they will be relatively light. When you shed the runflats (heavy as fak and handle like poop) things will even out. Plenty of members run 19/20 and 20/20. I bought some 20s earlier this year but I haven't finished my widebody conversion yet. I will be able to give you first hand impressions by the end of march.
