+1 on that. And you better take those bumpers off when you paint the car. Looks like you already had rims anyway. Post a pic when its done.

Make sure you run spacers in back...that offset doesn't look too good...

I love the ZL1 wheels. I wish they were 19's. 20's are pretty big for the fronts, though the ground effects help. How wide are they?

@JDEP162 thanks for real though! @ everyone else I know that MY and I say Again MY car needs a paint job its only obvious, thanks for pointing it out I didnt notice! If yall really wanted to know I had to get the wheels first in order for the body shop to flare the rear quarter's to these new wheels.

They're 20×9 265/35 front 20×11 315/35 rear the chrome wheels I had already were 20s as well never had problems. They also had the same tire measurements in the front. Rears was the only thing that really changed now instead of a 10 1/2 rim its a 11 with a different off set hence the wider wheels

Are you sure on the rear size? Those don't look like ZL1 wheels, they look like the Factory Reproduction Style 41 "ZL1" wheels and those don't come in a 20x12. The biggest they come in is 20x11.

Yes sir I stand corrected they are 11s. Off set is different. I looked at so many different wheels bro, most where 12s; thats why I was thinking 12s

i guess most of you guys missed his Body shop nightmare thread. u guys should look that up and read through it before you come down on him for the body work. give him a break.
@OP...wheels look good....should compliment the car nicely when everything else is done.
