I just wanted to get your opinion on my new set up for my 02 Z28
I got some 18X9 HPR5's and was planning on going with the BF goodrich KDW 275/35/18. Found them at costco for $215 installed per tire. Let me know what you think...

God I hope it wasn't asked in this thread, but 20+ pages was too much.....
Will the c6 z06 replica wheels I just bought for my camaro fit on a corvette? All four are 19x9.5 w/ 275/35/18.
Just wondering, I'm having a really hard time deciding if I should keep them, or sell them and get the regular c6 wheels.

TTII's 17x9.5 I know a 275/40/17 will work for front.
I was wanting to put the 17x11 TTII in the rear. Would I be safe w/ a
285/40/17 tire for that size rim?
The reason I say, is b/c I have 4 of these tires laying around w/o wheels on them, and I would love to have the 17x11's on the rear, but don't want to have to order new tires. So, will I be safe? Anyone have any pics of this size on their car?
Anyone else have to use a BFH or do any mods for this rim? Offset for the 17x11 is 45. The car is at stock ride height, and it has a moser 12 bolt if that makes any difference (95Z). I was hoping to be able to get away w/ the 285, to avoid and fender rolling mods.

Sorry i have seen this here before but i cannot find it when i search.
1. Stock width on 2002 WS6...9.5"
2. Stock offset on 2002 WS6...50mm?
3. Wheel shops all say that 17 x 10" width will not fit up front. people here say they will? I do not any rubbing. I've been looking at the smoothies 17 x 10 with 36mm offset...will these stick out too much and look odd? I want to keep same size on all corners.
Thanks

And a 275/35ZR18 is the widest you can go on a 9" wheel . . .
Small up front, sure, a 245/40ZR18 should work fine, although might look a little narrower than the wheel.

2. Stock offset is 56 mm.
3. 10" wheels up front are pushing it. Although since you have a TA the fenders are a little wider than a Camaro. 36 mm IMHO will stick out up front. I have 38 mm offset 9.5" wheels up front, and they bearly fit under the fender lip. So adding more width, is going to stick out and a a smaller offset will make it stick out more.
