Im liking these Zr1s DD! Anyone put these on a Trans Am? I was looking at the Silver ones but i didnt even know they made them Polished. I have a Black Trans am and was wondering if those rear wheels would sit just like they do on the Camaro real Flush with the rear wheel well.

hey, i was wondering where you bought the rims and what all you had to do to make them fit, my car has eibich pro kit on it and when i return home from my deployment i want to buy some polished ZR1's and install them but i wanna know that they will fit before i spend 1300 or 1400 on wheels and tires that wont fit my car. It's a 95 T/A

I got mine from OE Wheels (sponsor here) I think they are the only ones that have the Deep Dish ones. I have an Eibach pro kit and i had to center the rear (adj panhard) and roll the lips on the rear. I did not have to BFH anything. You can not jack up the car from the side with the 17x11's on the rear unless you trim the bumpstops (which i still have to do) I think the tire you use will determine if you need to BFH the inner fender. I got the basic Sumitomos for now and they tend to run a little more narrow than other manufacturers. IIRC the Firebird had a bit more room in the rear fenderwell then a camaro. Good luck and thank you for your service to our country!

got them at oewheelsllc.com they fit any f-body. im lowerd a bit also and before i ran sumitomo 315's and didnt have to any modifications to the rear but going with the wider BFG 315's i had to do the BFH mod and adjus the center with my adjustable PHB, havent had to roll the fenders yet though. these wheels will cost you at the most 600$ shipped they have great deals.

Your car looks awesome man! Got to love those deep dish ZR1's!! As for lowering it more, it wouldn't hurt for it to be a little lower but if you like the way it rides and handles now don't touch it! Just drive it!!
