Help Me Decide on Rears!!
ive got a 99 ws6 with 17x9.5 z06 rims on all corners
nitto nt05's 275/40/17 on the front
nitto nt05R 315/35/17 on the rear
the rear tires kinda stick out past the rim cause the rim is a little to small for the 315's i cant find anywhere 17x11 z06 rims but i do find 18x10.5 rims
so what do you guys think, should i buy 18x10.5 for the rear or
should i just have the 17's that i have now widened?? ive heard its about 200 a rim.

I bought my chrome Z06 wheels 10 years ago. Back then they didn't make that wheel in 17x11, I doubt they do now. The cheaper route would be to sell your rear rims and get 18x10.5. Personally, I would widen them though.

if u want the easier rout, buy new 10.5, if u want them to look bad *** and money isnt an issue.. i would make them wider.. i wanted to do that on my 10.5 c5zo6 rim, but for half of inch is not worth it,,

yeah its usually half and half whether or not people like it. i think it kinda makes it look more like an old school muscle car but i like it. i think i might just end up getting them widened at some point.
tires for 18's are almost twice as expensive as tires for 17's
