does anybody have any pics of a third gen camaro with a set of C5 z06 wheels? any color, any size. im lookin at buying a set of 18inch polished ones but i cant picture them on the car or even know if they will fit right.

 

check my garage out, there chrome 18x9.5 all the way around

 

what is the backspacing on your wheels?

 

The backspacing is stock, and i have 1.5 inch spacers

 

did you have to do any kind of modifications to get them to fit, other than the spacers?

 

i have a set of z06 wheels in 18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rears. i have ls1 brakes, and a 1.5 inch spacer on the front. i have a fourth gen rear in my car. i have not fitted the rear wheels yet, but i plan to on thursday. i figure ill need around a 1/4 inch spacer to get them to sit where i want them under the car.

 

post some pics after you get them on if you would.

 

Nope, i didnt have to do anything else to them, and i also have the ls1 fronts and i have the ILE PBR rears, and i love it, stops awesome.

 

Here is my car wearing 18" by 9.5 polished Z06's. I also have C5 brakes up front too. Right now the car has the stock springs in it. Putting in a pro kit soon.

 

RandyZ28, Just wondering do you have any rubbing issues with that size rim? any modification? The car looks really nice tho! thanks

 

Mine isnt a Camaro, but I think you'll get the point. I have an 4th gen rear axle & 2" adapters up front!! Click the link.

No rubbing at all, Im using 1.7 spacers up front and a 4th gen rear.

 

Heres mine. I have a slight rubbing issue that I havnt been able to fix yet buy they are 17" x 9.5

 

I'd reccomend some aftermarket shocks with that too. I replaced my stockers with some OEMs, and then put on the ProKit. The springs killed the Monroes in about 6 months.

 

I have some TPIS aftermarket shocks and struts in there now. I think TPIS calls them there "super shocks and stuts"? There suppost to be some re-valved Corvette shocks that help improve your laptimes on the track.

Im also gonna get a pro kit and lower the car a bit. But Im putting in Hooker 2210 longtubes and want to wait till there in before I lower it and lose too much ground clearance.

 

What front spacers and brakes are you running? When I had my old 2.25" spacers on up front I had a few rubbing issues as well. When I upgraded to the C5 front brakes the rotor hat thickness was .3, so that spaced them out even further. I had some smaller spacers made, 1.7 now everything is perfect!

I see your front wheels stick out quite a bit, I remember that on mine.

 

Im running LS1 front brakes with 2" spacers. Maybe I need to get 1.7 ones. Even my stock tires rubbed a little after I put spohn front a arms on. I willl be getting there K member when I pull the engine.

 

I am running 17X9.5's all the way around, I have a 4th gen rear and it didnt require any spacers out back. thats with 315 Nitto DR's in the back. Although the bumpstop needs worked. In the front I have C5 Z06 brakes, with a 2" spacer. since the brake conversion spaces the wheel out ~.3-.4" 1.6-1.7" spacers would make it tuck really nice, but right now its not terrible, they still tuck under the fender, barely. The rear is **** though! sorry you cant tell from the pics, wrong angle and low quality (camera phone). This was with no motor, and a fresh sportline kit. The car has settled much better in the front.
