Got my 17x9.5 and 17x11 Zr1's on order!!
Man trying to figure out the wheel's i really wanted was super hard. I figured i'd start a tread to help you guys with your wheel combo. What i ordered was 17x9.5 And 17x11 Black zr1's with a polished lip. They're going on a red 92 z28 with blck strips. I'll post pics soon. Let me know what you guys think! Also got a smoken deal through tomZwheels. 968.00 shipped!! With tires!

NOTE: There are 2 offsets for the 9.5" wheels, one will clear the tie rods with 2" spacers, the other won't. I am running 2" up front and have a set of each offset wheels. I had to grind down the tie rod ends about 1/16" to 1/8" for some clearance to get one set to clear (car would barely roll till I noticed it rubbing).

For the front, if you got the +56mm offset, you'll need 2 1/4" spacers. I just did it.

Looks pretty sweet man. I ordered 2" Spacers all around cause i'm putting on C5 Brakes Atm... Damn cars don't stop well at 100+..LOL. I get the wheels in tomorrow. Spacer hopefully friday. Ill post pics asap. Such a hard time deciding. Was gonna go with TT2's but every one has them.. And not up for spending 500+ a wheel.
