Just recently picked up a set of 18" VS-5RS in the apex recommend sizing of 18X11-et7 and the 18X12-et41. I have never used this setup before but the guy I purchased them from said he ran it on a ZL1 non 1LE. The tires he has on the rims right now are as follows:

Fronts 18X11 et7 Yoko Advan A052's in a 315/30
Rears 18X12 et41 Vitour P01r in a 345/30

I am running extended studs and a track alignment and I also have 3mm spacers for the fronts so I shouldn't need to grind any struts. These rims are intended for scrub slicks and are only track duty. Just a side note I also run SM10s on a 19X11 et35 square with a 26mm spacer with zero issues. I figured I might as well use the tread up on these tires that are already mounted and balanced, but the sizing seems a little off and I was curious if I will run into any issues before sending them.

I am also happy to dismount and run the classic 305/660 and 325/680. Side question where are people buying their takeoffs and are they happy?
