Anyone running C7 ZO6 Wheels

I am currently running a set of ROH Snypers that are 17x8 all around. I have a 245/45R17 tire on them. I recently bought a 4th gen to part out and it has a Moser 9 inch rear in it which got me to thinking about maybe getting new wheels for the car since the rear is wider. I can narrow the rear and keep the same wheels as well.

Here is what the car looks like now:



I am running QA1 coil overs in the front and the fender height is about 26" and I am running an LS1 front brake conversion with 12 inch rotors which adds .300" on the front width. In the rear I am running BMR lowing springs and have trimmed the bump stops and the fender is right about 26 3/16".

I like the look of the XXR 526 but not sure about running them and the different bolt pattern. I know many have done it and I have a friend with Miros on his 4th gen with the different pattern. I really like the C7 ZO6 wheels since they came out.

Here is link to wheel I am talking about.


I read through the FOR ANYONE ASKING ABOUT CORVETTE WHEELS post and saw that C7 Stingray wheels are the same offset but couldn't find any info on the C7 ZO6 wheels. Will these fit?

Here are the specs on an 18x8.5 wheel:

KU#: SET-CV22B-18085-5475-56G
WHEEL SIZE: 18x8.5
WHEEL OFFSET: 56
BOLT PATTERN: 5-120.65
HUB SIZE: 70.3
BACK SPACING: 6.95472441
CENTER CAPS: Center cap not included, factory center cap will interchange.

here are the specs for a 17x9.5 wheel
SKU#: SET-CV22-17095-5475-54G
WHEEL SIZE: 17x9.5
WHEEL OFFSET: 54
BOLT PATTERN: 5-120.65
HUB SIZE: 70.3
BACK SPACING: 7.38
CENTER CAPS: Center cap included, Original center cap will interchange

Anyone running these and have a pic? Really I would like a 9" rim but they only seem to make them in a 17x9.5 or 18x10.5 which I have read is too wide on the front. With the fourth gen rear could I run all the same offset all the way around and a small pacer in the front? Thoughts?
