Those are sweet. I'm looking forward to pics of them on your ride.
How long are they going to make you wait for the 4th one?

What is the difference in size of these wheels & tires vs. the ones that come with the Z06 from the factory? What do they cost?

these r 19s and 20s versus 18s and 19s. rear width is 13.5 i believe. weight should be considerable less. price was 6900, which sucks!

after tryint to put these on and noticed their INCREDIBLE weight i put them to the scales. 68 LBS!!! what bs. they are a 345 tire yet the contact patch is the same size and the tires dont square up on the wheel. the stock rears with emt's weigh only 60.5 lbs. so for 7k these pos are going back. talked to john at ccw who can hook me up with some truely light wheels for 4.5k is going to get my money.

Good Choice, I plan to go with CCW when I have that much disposable cash laying around.

I talked to john a while back about the EMTs on my C5 Z06, he said that the New tires ran extremely wide. I am a bit shocked about the weight though, seems that you would get a pretty big weight savings from non EMT. Is the weight in the wheels?

Well damn... CCW has a new one piece forged race wheel out, but looking at your current wheel choice I'm guessing your going with something a bit more blingy =)
