Heres a Camaro with OEM 40mm offset Fronts /59 mm offset Rear wheels and the OEM tires sizes . 325/30-19 and 275/35-18 . This car was hammer tubed with the pinion snubbed cut off . The OEM offsets look SOOO much better on the 4th gens as their not sitting so far in the fender well . Most of the replica Z06 wheels use the stock C6 wheel offsets 56mm front/78 or 79 rear which is why most of them tuck in so much .

I'll be posting pics of the finished product for sure. But until then I'll post pics of the wheels and tires. Look for the finished product early-mid February.

Those are some really good looking wheels. What method are you using to flare the quarters?

I'll be laying up fiber glass using corvette fiber glue to adhere it to the metal quarters.
