FIKSE wheels. Light and strong. Used by some IMSA teams. Used a set on my Vette. Would proly go with Sean's set up spec wise 10.5F and 11R.
$5G CAD for a set of 19s all in delivered.

Oh ok, if I ever spend about $3500 on a set of wheels it will be CCWs in 19x10.5" and 19x11.5" but someone mentioned that they don't offer 10.5" size on 19"

I prefer FIKSE over CCW by far. Never heard of one breaking/bending - ever.

hmm, any reported issues with CCWs ? I didn't hear any breaking or bending with them either. That being said, I heard some very expensive, reputable forged wheels bending also. I think it depends on how hard you hit a bump or some sharp edge

Yes, I too have seen some very pricey (and not so pricey) wheels break. So like I said: I prefer FIKSE

EDIT: I would also consider Z28 Alcoas. Albeit they don't fit perfectly. But 1G cheaper.

I know that's the general rule for street driving, but have always heard to get a new tire if tracking with the increased loads and heat. Not from experience just saying what I've heard and that the tire companies no longer honor their speed rating once repaired.
