Z06 Spyder Wheel in Chrome Here she is, stock 10 spokes as optioned at SLP:
UPS delivers happiness in a box:
First day off from work and we got em mounted and balanced. Thanks Mike B @ Moore's Goodyear in Bossier City Louisiana. Specs are 18x8.5, 56 mm front, with a sumitomo 275/35 tire (stock height). Rear is 18x9.5, 56 mm with a 305/40 et street2 at 27 high.
275/40/17 ET Street Radial vs. 305/35/18 Street Radial2
Old vs. new:
Test fit. A little BFH needed! I went ahead and cut the bump stops off too, they would have cleared but didn't want to risk them hitting during a suspension unload since they ride inside the wheel.
Hello Mexico. My impressions are, these tires hook really well. With 40 degree temps it's not gonna hook from a dig but it put up a damn good fight. I could really feel the new Viking coilovers working.
Stock front sumi on the 10 spoke, 275/40/17. Rear was about the same.
New front 275/35/18
New rear, 305/40/18 ET Street Radial2

Gorgeous Camaro, love those Spyders.
How did you like the ET Streets on your 10 spokes? Did they feel pretty decent cruising around on the street? Looking to get a set for mines in that same size once the weather breaks around hre

Glad you asked. Fronts were almost the same at 48 for rim/tire. But the rear went from 50 for the 17 to 60 for the 18. So I gained about 20 lbs changing wheels.
