If you put a tire on the wheel with the same or close to the same overall diameter, you have to do nothing . . .

The stock tire height is 25.7 inches. Go to tire rack.com, they provide all the specs you will need to decide which tire to run. They also have reviews on the tires. Hope this helps.

I had the 17 x 9 WS6 wheels, and put 17 x 9.5 ZO6 wheels on my car and it did not do anything to the speedometer. They look good too!

width has nothing to do with speed calibration. only height. if you were to go with OEM 18's then maybe...

just sold my factory zo6 rims to my buddys 99 z28 and had to massage the inner wheel well with a sleghammer to fit but i think if he had a adjustable panhard rod it would more than likely had no fiment issues . He had to re adjust his speedo cal. but if he went to a smaller aspect ratio like a 295 30 18 insted of 295 35 18 i think he would have been close enuff not to need it.
