I'm actually putting these up for sale now for $600 cause I've decided to sell the car but I'm still gonna put another nice set of wheels on it b4 I sell it.

I take it $600 without tires?

Nobody makes a chrome 50mm WITH a lip that matches the OEM spokes either?

No one makes this wheel.

This is why I'm going with a 9.5" which is sufficient for the smaller Nitto tire...

DAMN! Guess I gotta just watch the boards for a older set of 17X11 AFS's....

I'm not spending $1200 plus chroming fees for GM ones. This blows.

LS2 bait, LMK if you EVER sell yours!

OEM ZR1 Grandsport offset (50mm) powdercoated and polished lip. 315's on the rear. Bumpstops taken out, too close for me, no other mods to fit. These are deep lug.

I found the wheels!

Here are a few pictures of the ZR1 11" wheels w/ Nitto 555 275/40/17 front and Nitto 555R 315/35/17 rear.

I love the tires! And I love the wheels since I was able to find a matching rear!

Reflectors work!

Of ALL places to find the wheels....

http://www.jegs.com/i/Detroit%20Whee...7161C/10002/-1

The wheels have deep lugs and are 50mm offset with a matching lip profile to the stock ZR1.... so they are perfect!

The wheels are actually made by Detroit Wheel www.detroitwheel.com

It was just pointed out to me that the wheel spokes are a little more square than the stock wheels... but to me it's hardly noticeable....

To each his own.... I can't tell a difference unless I stare back and forth between front/back wheels... I love the look of the car now...

I'm aware that the car needs to be lower... but I'm not lowering it until I find a spring that helps cornering and weight transfer at the strip.
