315 30 18s on all four corners, 94 bird.
 
Here's my piece. I'll get it painted one of these days.
18x11 Ace slick wheels, 53mm offset. 315 30 18 Perellis. I can fit my fingers between the wheel and the knuckle. The fronts are stacked on top of a small spacer for the Porsche rotor. A very thin spacer would be required to run this offset with stock or C5 brakes.

That looks sweet...how does it handle?

SIK02SS 04-15-2008 10:43 PM

whats your suspension setup? i assume if your running porsche calipers (and 315x4) you do open road racing events?

z28_YOU_HO 04-15-2008 10:51 PM

It's a weekend driver and sees the occasional DE. I'm running Unbalanced Engineerings Bilstein racing coilovers 650/350# springs, UE PHR relocation brackets. Aluminum dbl adj rod ended PHR and LCAs. 36mm front bar 1 inch rear. I was using some BMR lower A arms but the shock mount began to buckle so I've got a set of stock A arms with the global west bearings on the way. I'm probably forgetting some stuff. But I think that's the basics. There might be some minor rubbing at full lock. I haven't checked yet. If I ever learn to drive worth a shit I'll get some ZR1s and race rubber.

nice! does your car oversteer a lot with the PHR relo, 350s, and 1" bar?

sounds like it would be real touchy?

I put the PHR back up in the stock position once just to see what it was like and it was pretty touchy. The bar being lowered makes a big difference. The best way to describe it is that the rear seems more an active participant as opposed to just pushing the car or following the front end.

Those wheels look just like my C6 Z06's (which happen to be for sale!)

eddielb 04-17-2008 10:01 AM

looks good got any ASS shots ?

v7guy 04-18-2008 06:59 PM

A few more pics, lock to lock, the wheels touch the plastic liner just barely. It makes no contact with any other parts, I don't forsee any problem at all. I forgot to weigh them while I was at it. I'll try to get it in the morning.

nice dude, your power steering system is going to HATE life!

Hawk108 04-18-2008 09:56 PM

I love your brakes!

unSStoppable 04-19-2008 02:23 AM
