Okay I read all of the stickies and threads and even used the search
I have my wheel choices narrowed down to three and I would like to know which would fit the best with the least amount of BFH work. Spacers are not an option for me.
This is going on a 2002 SS with 9400 miles so I want to limit the BFH.

1. 17x9.5/17x11 TTii's with 275/40 & 315/35 Nitto NT555 +45mm

2. 18x9.5/18x10.5 C5 Z06 with 275/35 & 295/35 KDW's Rear offset +56 or 58

3. 17x9.5/17x11 DD ZR1's with 275/40 & 315/35 Nitto NT555 +50mm rear offset


Thanks in advance and if anyone has any of these wheels on a Red camaro can you please post up?

In all 3 of those choices, the best offset would be in the 54-50mm range. This will make it somewhat even with the fender and highly doubt you'll need to do a BFH. The 56-58mm will probably cause you to have to do a little BFH (about 2-3" area in size).

Did you need to do alot of modifications for your ZO6 wheels? Are they even width all around? Spacers?

Option #1 is you best bet, but I would roll the fender lips.

Well I pulled the trigger on the TTii's. I hope I dont regret getting 17's it doesnt look like there are as many options as a 18" wheel for tires

May I ask where you're getting your TTIIs?

For your front tires there's a lot of options, it's the rears that have a good, but limited amount of Street tire options (Sumitomo, Nitto, Kumho, Goodyear).

My mistake, I thought I saw BFG street tires in a 315/35/17, but I guess I was wrong.
