Well ….I am planning to put 12 Inch wide mothafuka ZR1s on the back of my baby just for the look and I know they r heavy as hell and no 1 did this before but I want to try if possible they will look nasty for sure .....I have already 9.5 ZR1 for the front so I need something really fat for the rear so my question is......
Where can I get 12 wide ZR1 for my convertible camaro? Also what offset would be the best to keep the rim flashed with the fender? Is 335's tire good for 12 inch rim? I tried the search button but didn't find specific answer
My car is not lowered and I am not planning to lower it , my car is 2000 model Z28 Conv
What do u think guys give me idea, thoughts anything that will help me in my little project hehehe
Don’t hesitate to ask about any thing
THANX –ISA-

Have you seen a car with 315's? They are also very wide
Just get the 11" wide zr1's and throw some 315/35/17 goodyear gs-d3's on there and you will have one of the widest setups you can get. The goodyear tire runs wide so it will be close to the viper tire, maybe 1/2" smaller.

thanx people
Allot of people prefers the 38+ offset for Trans am rear and 50+ for camaro rear , why is that ?
Can any member here post pic for camaro with 11x17 38+ or 50+? I want to see the difference between both sizes from behind and side if possible before I buy
Also wanted to know what is the widest tires I can go with 11x17?

Too bad we can't get mini tubs for our cars like the vettes can get from Lingensmell-ter. Our car WOULD look bad *** with 12 or 13's, but we'd have to be tub'd.

I wouldn't go any wider than a 315 on the 11" wide wheel.

I went with 335 michelin pilots on my 94 vette, on 17 x 11 oem Zr-1 rims. I was assured by so called "tire experts" at the tire rack that 335 would be just fine on an 11" wide wheel. Definately the max width you should go on 11", but perfectly fine. I had no issues other than additional rotational weight/mass over the 315's. Plus when I was buying tires, the 315 mxx3 pilots were almost twice as expensive as the 335's were.
