Last year when I asked if I could run my wheels that were picked from a
HONDA brochure on a stand in the HONDA dealership in stock class I was told
no. Why because they were 0.5" wider (5.5") than the steel wheels (5") the
factory put on, same diameter just wider. Everyone who walked into a Honda
dealership that year had a shot to buy them but they're "dealer installed"
options so no go in stock.
I say looks like a duck, walks like a duck, its a stock wheel. They even
have HONDA wheel centers but NO not stock.
All that to say; SBW I feel your pain but many many other cars suffer under
the SII rules and can't get a change. The local won't except the rule like
my previous region did either.
BTW I think a Corvette guy ought to be real careful who he calls porky (see
previous SBW porsche reference).
