ZR 1 wheels and rear end width? Hey guys I am thinking about a set of 17x11 in the back of my 96 TA and waould like to have the rims tucked inside the wheel well. I am not afraid to mini-tub the car, actually prefer to and was wondering if getting my 12 bolt narrowed some would help this also to include the mini-tub. I would like to run the M&H dr with the 28 diameter on these rims and i figure this set up would be ideal. just looking for any suggestions before I proceed and don't want to run spacers or any other band aids if I could get it right the first time. Thanks in Advance Art

Well 11" Zr-1's really only come in two offsets, 36 and 50. The 36's would stick out a very small amount if at all on a Firebird. The 50's fit very nicely within the Firebird wheel wells. All that may need to be done to fot is to massage the inner wheel well surface wit a big hammer.
Now I have heard, but not seen a 56 mm offset which would move the wheel in 6 more millimeters, and again nothing a BFH couldn't take care of with the inner wheel well.
