How big of a tire do you want to run?

I'm kind of kicking myself for getting the Z06s, because they don't come in a 17x11 size.

I just got the deep dish black Zr1's. I am running 315's in the rear on the 17x11. I was gonna get the deep dish y2k's or Z06's but the fact i could run a 315 in a 17 inch is what sold me on the Zr1. I also didnt like the staggered 17/18 setup and 18 inch tires are expensive.

That's exactly why I'm switching.

I can get a set of drag radials on 17s for the price of one drag radial on 18s.

Maybe less if you can find a good deal.

How deep is the lip in the ZR1s btw? That's currently what I'm looking at.

Front lip is about 1 inch:

Rear is about 2 inches:

Here is a rear shot that shows the lip off:

And a side shot:
