The only thing I regret about doing the 17x11s is not doing them sooner. You will love them once they are on. A 50mm offset is needed to keep them from sticking outside your fender. That is what I have and they are barely tucked in under the fender.

I should be getting mine tomorrow, they are also black zr1s 9.5 up front with 11s in the back with a 50mm offset. That is what most people recommend for the 11'' zr1s.

you would rather have chrome than polish. Polish is like having a newborn forever, SOOOO much work.
