Quick question before I drop the $$ for F1-DS-3G's, Will 285/40/17's have any issues with fitting, or will they throw off my speedo?? God knows I dont need anymore tickets!!

Btw they are going on a 9in "SS" rim

They will go on, although with a GSD3 I wouldn't recomend them for a 9" wheel.

A 285, will throw your speedo off.


The 275/40ZR17 GSD3 is HUGE compared to others 275's . . . just FYI

Andy, you have any idea what Tom Henry is running for an offset oh his 18" TT2's on his red vert?(18x8 front/18x10 rear) What is your opinion on 18x10's all around? I leaning toward this wheel, since the Corvette rotors need a bigger TT2 wheel.

Thanks Andy.

I think AR only makes the 18's with one offset for the F-Car. Tom's Wheels has a special on the TT2's going on. If I recall correctly they were $1189.

Yep. Pretty much a direct swap. The only possible issue, that you may experience is the "hub" button on the rear axles on the LT-1 cars can run a little large, so the center "hole" on the wheel center may need a small bit ground off.

The 18" x 8.5" are 54 mm the 18" x 9.5" are 68 mm and the 19" x 10" are 79 mm. As far as I can find.

The 8.5" are the only ones that fit with out the use of spacers. The others will need spacers. There are a TON of posts in the forum, do a search and you will find all your answers and more . . . .

The 18 x 8.5's no.

The 19 x 10's absolutely. Around 1 1/4" adapter.

Dont mean to butt in but Im looking at some rims that are 18X8.5 with a 35mm offset. According to this sticky 38mm is the least amount of offset. These rims are off by 3mm is that really gonna make them stick out. Any Opinions??

the lower the offset the more the wheels will stickout.

Thanks Bio Messiah for stating what i just said...I want to know if 3mm passed the recomended offset will stick out too much and look bad.
