LS1's with 18" wheels
 
Ok I have 18 x 9.5 and 18 x 10.5 ZO6 wheels. What size tires are you guys running on these size wheels? Will it affect my 1/4 mile times? If so....how much will 18's affect my speed? Also I don't know the offset of my wheels and I can't get a hold of the previous owner. How can I find out my offset?

front should be somewhere around a 275/35/18 and rear should be around 295-305/35/18, the stocks on the Zo6 are 275front/295rear if i remember correctly...so yea tires are more expensive but thats a trade-off for nicer looks...im going 19's and getting 285's or 295's on the rear depending on money but im looking at $300+ for EACH rear tire and they're only STREET tires :cry: lol :jest: but anyways back to you, the offsets should be fine if they're OEM off that ZO6 they should bolt right on. I doubt you will have a clearance problem but watch the rear if you go with a big tire(305/35/18 or bigger) if you're lowered it might "rub" on the "inside" of the wheel with the fender well and/or that crappy bump stop thing. Hope it turns out lookin badass man take it eazy
