(9.5/2)+(54/25.4)+0.25-5=2.126" adapter for the front.

Replace the 9.5 with 10.5, and the 54 with 56, and the 5 with 5.85 to find the rear adapter thickness.

I would love to lower it but I don't want my front to hit EVEN MORE when I'm entering and exiting my driveway. I'll post more pictures for sure.

Re: Got Vette Wheels??...Post pics here...!

Those are one of the best looking wheels I've ever seen on a third gen. With these wheels, I don't think I'll need spacers for the rear on my car, since I am running a 4th gen rear.

Questions:
1. What tire size are you running on the narrower front wheels (265/35's perhaps?)-and do they ever rub the fenders?
2. What springs/springs kit are you running?
3. What color is that on your car? I love it.

Thanks.

1. 265/40/18 upfront. I was running 275/35/18 but my headers hang too low so I had to go a little taller. These are perfect.

2. I'm running the Sportlines, however my car weighs around 3400 because the LS1(about 150 lbs less than stock).

3. Color is Cyber Grey Metallic, I fell in love with it when the ZR1 came out. I'll get some better pictures with a SLR camera soon.

Thanks man, I love the color too but sometimes I miss my previous Jet Black paint. Maybe I'll re-shoot it black when I have more time to upkeep it.

i just picked up some C6 ones 18x8.5 19x10 ordered 2" spacers for the front and 1" for the back ( i have the 02 rear) and working on some tires for the front ones.
The best thing is i only paid $300.00 for them

i did cut the front springs 1/2 coil but it's not enough, the rears do rub a little on the front section on hard turns even with the 1" spacers on a 2002 rear end , i should have got 1.25 spacers

Here's it is with ZR1's installed:





Some wheels just don't look right with certain cars / colors. IMO; The silver ZR1's work with every color combination...... It may just be the perfect 17" wheel for just about every ThirdGen !

dude you have to tell me what set up you used, do you need spacers for the zr1 wheels and what year are the wheels?
