I can't seem to find any 17x11 Z06 wheels anywhere.
18x10.5, 18x12, and 20x10.5 are all the biggest I could find.

Same here, thats why I went with the ZR1's. Plus they look a little more tough. And the size was esy to find on ebay.
Hell my rims might not be the best quality by any stretch of the imagination, but I bought all for off ebay for UNDER 400 bucks, new, 510 with shipping from Florida to Boston.
17X9.5
17X11

Those are 17X11 in the back? what offset were they and what size adapter?
I have 2" adapters and i want to run an 18x10.5" wheel if it doesn't stick out of the fender.
Did yours stick out?

I think it's time to get rid of them. I am not really fond of them at all, but they were on the Flowmaster I bought for $25. Probably go with a set of dual dual tips.

Do you have any more pics? Preferably directly in the front or back?
Also would that rear end be equivalent in width to a 3rd gen with 2" adapters?

haven't had time to take more pics, but I'll snap off a few tomorrow before I go to work.
And the 4th gen rear is about the same as running 2" spacers.

Zeph i have a set of dual duals i might get rid of. Im going turn down but im looking for some headers too so i can get it in one lick.
I had the 2" spacers with my 4th gens WS6 wheel (like zephers old ones) and i didnt realize how bad the handling was affected until i found my stock GTA wheels.

I think these ones would look hot.
I was thinking about getting my Z06 wheels done in this scheme.

hey zepher, do you have a bigger pic of your formula with the vette wheels on it like in your sig? I think those things look hideous on the ‘vettes but really pretty good on the f-bodies, but I’ve never seen anything but a small pic

ok heres what I found could someone please confirm
C6
front 18x8.5 Offset: +56 mm
rear 19x10 Offset: +79 mm
GrandSport ZR1
17X8.5 +56mm
now it looks like the front will fit with my spacers no problem, but the rears will need a larger spacer? but since im planning on swapping in a 4th gen rear, how thick would the rear spacer need to be? and what other modifications are required for that 10 inch wide rear rim?
