Well, got them mounted and balanced at Nu Image Motorsports today. Stacy did an excellent job once again. The wheels are a new design from iForged called the Daytona and it is part of their new Xtreme Lip Technology line. This allows for a 2.5" lip in front that will still clear big brakes, and a 4" lip out back which looks FLAT OUT KILLER!
Due to a national back order on the Continental CS2's, I was forced to go with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2's which rate superior in every measurable category, but are only available in 265 & 295 widths as opposed to the 275 & 305 widths from Continental. I was concerned with the tires "stretching" over the wheels, but after seeing the mounted product, I am 100% happy with the forced decision....it was a blessing in disguise.
Here are some pics after I slapped them back onto the car:

Since you posted a Vette I thought I would show mine off a little. I have Kinesis 19x12.5 on the rear and 18x10 on the front. 345/30/19 out back.

Me t...wait I did keep my ZO6 :) Only kidding Tony, wish you could have kept it...it must have been hard to let go.
AS for EFI...that is the worst looking ZO6 I have EVER seen. I would never base my decision to buy a black ZO6 based off of pics of your car...errrrrrrr...
lol...the wheels look amazing! But, I have come to expect things such as this from you :)

Yeah, I think the same wheels have been listed on their site for a few years now. I think it said 2002 in one section when I was looking last!
Dave if you have updated pictures of wheels coming into the market from iForged will you share them please!?
