Re: Z06 wheels fit pics

That's how mine sat with an LS1 rear and I didn't like it that much either,




The 18's do look good though.

I went with the 17x9.5" Z06's,

Re: Z06 wheels fit pics

Can we run a smaller spacer? I've seen around the boards here that 2" all the way around seems to be a fairly common size. Can we go less than 2" in the rear w/out fitment issues? I don't think that looks bad, but i think i would also like to see them "tucked" a little more. I'm going to be running an OEM set of 18x10.5's in the rear, so this info would be extra helpful for me. Especially since i haven't bought spacers yet.
