Default HELP with matching up 17x11 zr1s with factory zr1s(ss)

i have factory (slp) chrome zr1's and i was wanted to buy a set of 17x11 rear chrome zr1s that matched the factory ones i have. i know some have squared spokes but im not sure which company's make which. id hate to purchase a set and them looked squared when the factory spokes are more round. im also not looking for the deep dish style. i prefer the DEEP LUG style. any pictures would be great help to. i prob have 3 hours into a search and i cant seem to find which company makes which wheel...

exact wheel im looking for...deep lug 17 by 11, chrome...not sure of the offset though

I ran into this same problem when I first looked into 17x11 ZR1's. However, since GM never offered them in 17x11, all of these sizes are by aftermarket companies, which mean that they can't quite copy GM's design, hence the more squared off spokes. It bothered me so much that I sold my 17x11's that I had ended up purchasing. If you find out anything else different, I'd love to see them.

Also note, I never considered trying to mount a Corvette-style ZR1 in that size to my car. I cannot speak to that feasibility.

You could always have 2 of them widened to 11". Honestly it will probably run about the same price as a pair of aftermarket wheels, but you know it will match.

I jave 6 extra slp chrome zr1s...I just dont know how much ive have to space them..I seen plenty of threads with widend ws6 and 1o spokes...nobody really had their zr1 wheel's widend I guess because of all the after market options..weld craft is about 200.00 a wheel plus a spacer. If the factory zr1 is the same offset as a ten spoke or ws6 wheel..then I can widen them to 10.5 with ease and no rub issues. I foind out with some more research that AFS made the 17x11in chromewith the deep lugs like tthe factory gs wheels.

I've got a pair of the deep center 17x11 zr1s. Let me know what you'll offer for them if you're interested. I have them in the FS section but may be able to work on the price a little.

You won't find some EXACTLY like the factory wheels, the stock spokes are more rounded on the edges than all the after markets. But the deep lug ones are the closest thing
