you may need it. Somtimes the rear is centered enough after the car is lowered and you dont need it. but having one wont hurt

 

Noticed your from Hawaii sent you a PM

 

Ahhhh gotcha, i wanna lower my car, just not sure what else i need. I have GC coilovers already.

 

Heres mine, 2 inch spacers in the rear, 1.7 up front with the brake upgrade, 285/35/17 rear, 275/35/18 up front

 

Looks good simz28! What tires do you have on there? Where did you get the 1.7 front spacers?

 

I got nitto nt555 all the way, found the rear tires at a swap meet for 40 bucks, still got about 50% tread left. as far as the front wheel spacers, they are from skulte, but being the cheap bastard i am, i searched and searched on ebay untill i fould a used set, i think i payed like 50 bucks for them with shipping, lol

 

What color is that?

 

ok, ive gone through this whole thread, as well as the post you vette wheels thread and have not found my answer.

Is anyone running the stock C6 Z06 rims on a third gen.
I believe they are 18x9.5 and 19x12. will they fit.
I want to change out my current c5 setup

I would guess that you are going to have to tub out the rear to get those tires to fit. without modifying the rear quarters or the trunk well, 19x12's wont fit.
and for the front, you are going to have to do some work on the fenders as well to be able to turn from full lock to full lock without rubbing the fenders or the inner fender wells

 

I don't wanna ressurrect a dead thread, but it's hard to find more people with these. I'm very seriously considering them as they look awesome, but I really like the C6 basemodel wheels as well. OE wheels has these from the picture and deep dish as well as non-dished versions of the c5 and c6 wheels. here are the links:

I really liked orr89iroc's wheels which are the c6 competition gray 19s in the rear and 18s up front, and oe wheels has them dished as shown. So basically I was wondering if anyone has run either of these 2 wheels and could please post pictures because I'd love to see them on more irocs before I make a purchase! Anyone?! Also, in the above pics that i quoted, does anyone know if those are the 18x10.5 / 17x9.5? thanks!

 

woops just found the thread that answered my questions if anyone is interested: https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/post...5-post304.html

pics are still welcome tho

 

So, I have a 1991 Z-28, stock. 4 wheel disc (non 1LE), Perf Suspension Package etc.

If I buy these:

And (4) 2" adapters, they should go on my car with no problems?


Also, is around $600 a good deal for those rims?

 

Yes with 2" spacers you can run any Corvette or 4th gen Camaro rims.

 

that brake system is sick dude how much did you drop for that?

 

Got it for 800 bucks used, was in great shape, goes for like 1500 new

 

i read racing geek did 18x10.5 all around has anyone else done that? i have 4 chrome chrome zo6 18x10.5 and was wondering what your guys' thoughts are for getting them installed. 58mm offset. stock axle. disc brakes front and rear non 1LE.

 

Not sure about 10.5s up front but in the rear is fine. Make sure you check the spacing changes that may occur when using other than stock front brakes. For example the c4 brakes push the measurements out like .3" on each side up front so you need a thinner spacer to prevent rubbing tires on fender wells.

 

Are those 18's all the way around? They look bigger I'm the rear

 

I'm running 17s up front and 18s for the rear. Also running a 4th gen rearend.

 

Front:
245/40/18 -18x8.5 - 2.0 spacer
Rear:
285/35/19 - 19x10 - 2.25 spacer
Wrapped in goodyear eagle f1

 

so with 17/9.5 rims 2 inch spacers should be fine?

 

Alright everyone... Don't yell at me for asking, but will these fit?

I want to wrap them in Nitto Invo 285/35r19's in the rear and 265/35r18's up front. My 92 isn't lowered and I was planning on running 2" hubcentric spacers all around. I read that possibly a 2.25" is better for upfront? Comments? Concerns? Advice?


Thanks everyone!

 

Here is mine

91 Z/28 M6

Z06 Replica rims here. WIP.

18X10.5 in the rear with Continental DWS 295 35ZR 18. 2" spacers. About 1/2" clearance with inner wheel well. Not road tested.
17x9.5 in the front with Continental DWS 275 40ZR 17. 2" spacers. Clearance OK with wheels straight. Not road tested.

Original brakes in the pics. Upgrading rear axle next to 2002 Camaro SS. Will road test after axle replacement...

 

Please point me in the right direction where I can find these rims im in love with them.

 

Your car is beautiful 😍 where did you buy your wheels at?

 

I run a 2 inch on the front and 2.25 on the rear. I would say the 2.25 wouldnt be bad if you want to go that wide. The 2 inch gives it a very staggered look pushing a 295 on the rear.

 

I'm two posts above your post with the red very with black z06 wheels. And it's a 285 rear, sorry

 

Ok so to further revive a dead thread I’m looking at the C6 Z06 rims 18x9.5 to put on my 87. I have stock suspension and I’m wondering what’s the maximum tire size I could go, what’s the minimum and maximum space size I need and will I have any clearance issues? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
