c5 Zo6's or Zr1's? Hey, i'm currently looking for wheels for my PEWTER camaro. I either want 17x9.5 (front) and 17x11 (rear)(i would be going with 315's) Zr1's OR 17x9.5 (front) and 18x10.5 (rear)(295's in the rear) C5 Zo6's. Which one you think i should go with? Also what modifications would i need to do for each wheel so they don't rub? I hear with the zr1's i have to fender roll, would i have to do that with the zo6's also? Thanks

from what ive heard it all depends on the offset most people chose 50mm thats what id did and the fit nicely depends on the tires too most 315s fit good with minor if any BFH or cutting the bumpstop

you wouldnt have to do anything to the z06 wheels..i have 20x10s in the rear with 285's and I dont have any problems. I would actually go with some Zr1's..thats what I'm trying to do right now.

I'm running the stock sized Z06ers on mine. I prefer them, but if you like both wheels equally, go with ZR1s. The reason I say is because tire prices for 18" wheels should be considered pocket rape.
Not pewter, but it's a Camaro

ZR1s on pewter look nice. My old car...
It had deep center ZR1s
Current car with deep lip ZR1s - both cars are 17x11 rears...
Both sets require an adjustable panhard bar, I rolled the fender lips on both cars, and beat in the front inner edge of the wheel well.
