95' salad shooters to fit 00' WS6
 
can it be done or is it a big no no
i can pick some up but someone said something about the hub hole being different size from 97' and up can they be modded to fit

I have a set I use with drag tires on them

93-96 wheel hubs are wider then the 97+, meaning...93-96 wheels will fit on 97+, but 97+ wont fit on 93-96 unless you dremel/file down the inner portion of the wheel that hugs the hub.

so to answer your question. yes they'll fit with no problems... but salad shooters on a ws6 is hideous ;)

its not for looks just to take to the track
i have C6 Z06 wheels on them as my daily driver but i need traction for the strip

They will fit with no issues. I used some as drag wheels on my 00 Z a long time ago w/ no issues.

Yes they do look like shit. I had these on mine because my parents took the car back to Ohio when I deployed and these had more tread on them

^^^ NOOO! :bang:

Yeah they'll fit, just won't look good but I see that you would be using the for the track which I guess is fine. I would think you could find some better looking 5 spokes or used zr1's or something that would at least look decent, but its up to you man.

I'll sell you some ws6 wheels that you can use for DRs :D.

Yea..I agree..leave them to the Camaro's that came with them.

WTF is the whole point of the "sleeper" effect. I think that shit is gay/pointless. who cares if someone thinks your car is slow bc of how it looks. I want my car to look clean/fast. In my opinion. people that want the sleeper effect. are just to cheap to buy nice wheels/appearance mods. and say its for the sleeper effect. :rolleyes:

the_merv 01-19-2008 09:35 AM

You and me have a different opinion..no one other than the people that know me know what I have under the Hood..I leave it looking like a "stock LT1" for that purpose of a sleeper.
That way I get an interesting look when I walk all over someone with a "stock" car.

Yea I run the Slicks at the Track and occasionally on the street..but for most of the time it's cheap tires on the Salad Shooters to have fun with and burn off..

I totally agree with you man. I want my car to be fast AND look good. I could care less if somebody actually knows my car is fast. I hate when people try to hide what they have. Be proud of the work and money that you have put into the car and show it off!

See you aren't trying to hide what you have, you just aren't putting a 408 badge or something on the car. Now if you had a WS6 and debadged it or put salad shooters on there for a sleeper look, thats different imo.

the_merv 01-19-2008 02:40 PM

I hear ya..the Exhaust is loud enough to not mistake it for a V8..so I couldn't really get away with de-badging it.
