17x11 30th TA WS6 Wheels I had my wheels widened to a 17x11 size by wheels america. The tires are 315/35/17 Nitto NT555R Drag Radials but are about 1" narrower than the BFG's. The black ZR1's are also 17x11 with 315/35/17 BFG Drag Radials.
They are on the car already, its just too dirty to get good pics. I had to use a 1" spacer/adapter and beat on the inner fender some just incase. With my adj LCA'a and adj PHB, i dont think i needed to beat on the fender. The ZR1's where on for a week and only rubbed on the driver side cause my PHB wasnt streched out enough but would only hit on hard right turns.
The tires balanced out good and did not give me any vibrations. They said they have lifetime warranty.
If you look behind the wheels, there is a speedline WS6 wheel cut up in two. I had 2 of them with curb rash and dents and took them as donor rims. Unfortunatly they couldnt use them because they were different or something. They charged me $200 per rim with their material. $150 if my 02's would have worked.

Why is the zr1 wheel wider?

Nice dude! I've always loved those wheels. How much do they weigh? And I'm guessing these are going on the project 30th?
I think you should get some dirty installed pics. That way you can take "after" pics when the car's up and clean and it gives you a perfectly legitimate excuse for another picture thread
