Thanks for the kind reply's.

No mini tub needed.Because it's a 3 peice wheel CCW has the correct offset to make the 335's work with no rubbing.

Now I just need to remove the moldings install the 2 peice baer rotors and start on the audio.

A couple people that saw them on the slver Z06 told me they would pass and then when they saw them on my car cleaned up they said they thought they looked really good.

I will add you to the list of converters!!

Nitto makes the same tire.No BFG's for a daily driver

Driving in the rain is no problem the heat and the fact that there is only a little over a 1/4" gap seems to take care of the water.

When I park it and it starts raining I put a cover over the blower and shut the hood.I am not worried about the water but I want to keep the maggie looking pretty!!!
