Z06 wheel question
I think it's possible with the right off-set. I don't know about 295's up front though. Yeah if there is a way to get 17/11's to fit on all four corners then I believe the Z06's will fit. You might have to use a spacer up front and run longer wheel studs. It would look cool but I don't think I would do it on a Daily driver if that is what you have. I went to the does it fit thread and it says 17/11's up front are for race only. Good luck with the mod man it would look sweet.
I think that's a bit too much tire up front. Never heard about anybody doing that before. There is a sticky for this and since it is not listed I would say no. You could fit 295's in the front with a 17" wheel. Don't think it's possible with an 18" though.
Well I just found the answer to your qusetion on the does it fit thread 2nd page and it comes form Todd a Discount tire Direct. He says they will fit all day long with 275's on the front a 295's on the back. No spacers needed with a 54mm offset. He also says 285's will rub in the front. Oh yeah I also saw that he is running 18/10.5's all the way around. So he knows what he's talking about. 
If you need more info PM him he's very helpful.
If you need more info PM him he's very helpful. why would it not be a good idea...the only drawback i see is that it is a little extra weight...spacers or adapters, preferably adapters, will be required both front and rear to run those wheels and make it look right...
Thanks for the replys, I have until spring to decide what exactly I want to do. I also do think 295's are big for the front but I also think it would look chumpy as hell, especially with the 18's...

I have 18x10.5 with 53 mm offset on the front and rear with no spacers. 295/35/18 on the back and 285/35/18 on the front. The tires rub slightly on the plastic wheel well liner at full turn but it doesnt hurt anything at all. I am not lowered so im not sure what would happen there. I love the way it looks, it fills up the front wheel wells better i think.

If you can drop it with those wheels and tires, I would. I think it makes the fender gap look more obvious. Just me though. What about lowering with some 295 30's? Would look better and may be possible.
