Hey guys...I'm sick to my stomach, and here's the story:
I bought these BRAND NEW C6 Z06 reproduction wheels in size 18 X 9.5 front and 19 X 11 rear in the CORRECT offset for the C5. They are the black powdercoated with machined face version. I bought BRAND NEW Nitto Invo tires in size 275/35/18 front and 305/30/19 rears. The tires are mounted on the rims and ready to be balanced and installed. The rims come with the center caps and Corvette sticker still in the plastic bag. I still have the boxes for the rims.
I purchased the wheels and tires about a month ago. I also purchased a big brake kit, and these wheels don't happen to fit over the brakes.
:banghead:

Next time I'll do some more research.
I installed the wheels on the car BEFORE installing the big brakes so I could see what they look like. The wheels & tires don't have a single driven foot on them (as you can see the car is not road-worthy right now anyway)...it's all brand new. They're HOT and I'm devistated they're not going to work. My only option is to get rid of the rims.
I think it's best to sell the tires and wheels together, but WILL sell only the rims if I HAVE to.
Here is a link of the same wheels in the regular finish from a forum vendor for reference:

Here are the tires from Discount Tire Direct:

I've spent more than $2200.00 with wheels, tires, shipping, and mounting. I'll take $2000.00 for it all plus shipping. Let me know if you have any other pics, questions, details etc. I need to get rid of these as soon as possible. Thanks in advance!

Here are some pics, both on and off the car:
