Default Will They Fit?
I have a 2000 WS6 and I'm pretty sure I'm going to get some 17x11 Z06 wheels with some 315 rubber on them. I know I have to pound and grind in the wheel well and roll the fenders. My question is: Will any 17x11 Z06 wheel fit or is the spacing different? What is the spacing on a 17x11 Z06 wheel? Anything you guys can tell me is helpful.

Thx

good point... I need some 17x11 inch wheels. I need them cheap, used is ok. Pair or set. Need +50mm offset... I guess I'm going to end up with ZR-1 wheels, unless anyone knows of 17x11 Z06. What finish do the ZR-1's come in? Anything besides painted or chrome? Any suggestions? I'm trying to fit these with 315 rubber on my car, which will have Strano springs soon. Fender rolling needed?

Are the chrome ZR1's really any heavier than the polished? Like 1 pound, 3 pounds?
