Those are nice looking wheels. I would like to see what the car looks like when it gets lowered.

thanks very much!

i believe they are 56mm fronts and 50mm rears (corvette offset)

I had to fenagle them a little bit, which is why i've been hesistant on lowering it...even though there are a ton of people who have told me i can do it no problem.

I'm waiting on the rear end before I lower it, I want to see how it sits first.

i did it with the same offset on black zr1s and 315s in the rear. only 2 problems....bumpstops got in the way when jacking the car up.....tires will rub inner fender well on hard corners......but they look sweet

Thanks, i initially wanted a Silver WS6, but this SS came at such a good price, the difference between it and a WS6 was basically my procharger!

I initially ordered the Gunmetal ZR1's with a Polished lip, but OE Wheel messed up and sent me the chrome instead, so I chose to keep them..and i'm really glad i did!

a little massaging and they'll be fine...i actually haven't noticed any rubbing except for when going over speedbumps faster than i should

where are you referring to? I did jack it up in the wrong spot once (right behind the drivers side front wheel) I tried to get it back to normal, but i guess i didn't do a great job!
