zo6 wheels

[cliffey83]

For any of you wheel gurus, will these bolt right on to my ty or will I need spacers because of the offset. I know we need 56 up front and 50 in back on 11 inch rims, but what about these offsets. Any advice?

I wouldn't recommend running 17's and 18's due to the AWD. You'll have to keep the tire heights with 1% of each other front to rear. I know I've seen these in 17 and 18 inch sets. You won't need spacers with the 11" rears like the wheels with the GS offsets.

I AM RUNNING THE FIRST GENERATION C-5 WHEEL 17" FRONT AND 18" REAR. I AM RUNNING NITTO 255-40-17 AND 285-35-18 WITH THE ALL WHEEL DRIVE. IT LOOKS GOOD! RUNS GOOD! I WENT TO NITTO'S WEB SITE AND LOOKED IT UP AND THE TIRES FRONT AND REAR MATCH AT 25.95 INCHES TALL.

because the rears are 18 and the tires have to be the same size, doesnt the tire have less sidewall on the rear? Is it just me or would that look different with more wheel and less sidewall on the rear of a vehicle?

I WISH I COULD SHOW A PIC, I HAVE ALOT OF THINGS I WANT TO SHOW YOU GUYS ON THIS SITE. I LOST MY SOFTWARE TO MY CAMERA, DO TO A VIRUS, AND CAN NOT LINK. I AM NOT RUNNING SPACERS THEY BOLTED RIGHT ON. I BOUGHT THEM FROM WEST COST CORVETT. 17X8.5 AND 18X9.5 CHROME. (I DONT LIKE CHROME ANYMORE) U TURNS ARE GOOD, BUT I THINK IT TOUCHES ALITTLE AT FULL TURN. MY TRUCK HAS BEN IN SHOPS FOR TWO YEARS. (MONEY PITT) BUT I DID THE RESEARCH AND THEY MATCH UP EX. ON NITTO'S WEB SITE THEY SHOW THE TIRE SIZE,WIDTH,HEIGHT,EXT.

YO what up B? Just need to say that your Ty has left me speechless. It is off the hook. i love everything on it. I am going to send out my Zo6 wheels next week to get them shortened. So i wont need to run that 1.25" or so spacer. i decided to run the 275/35zr18 out back with 811 RPM and a 245/40zr18 in the front with 812 RPM. i don't think that one revolution will do any harm to the AWD. i agress with u on the chrome. i love the polished. I guess because chrome is too common. i might even powder coat them in black with the polished lip. not sure yet.
