Z06 wheels are on!

Many moons ago I was talking about getting Z06 wheels on my SS. Well, shes off to bigger and better things, so here are my Z06s on my new ride.

Thanks a bunch to JDeb for the hookup!

Z06 wheels

Brian-

Are those 18x10.5 on all four corners? What size tires are you running (275's in the front and 295's in the rear)? Are those OEM wheels? Do you have any trouble with your tires rubbing?

I like the look of them on your car.

Thanks.

They are OEM, 18X10.5 in the rear with 295s, 17X9.5 up front with 265s. No fitment problems in the front. The rears rub a little bit, so you gotta bang out the fenderwell a little bit. No big deal though. The only rubbing problems I have now is if I go over a speed bump at an angle or something. Just rubs for a quick second.

To be totally honest, I didn't think I'd like the look of the Z06 wheel on a Camaro for some reason, but after seeing it, I think they look really nice!

Good choice!

Good luck getting through the Gorilla Locks PAL. Yeah those are pre 97 tails. I cant stand 97+ tails. I never minded them on my SS but on black the ugly yellow stands out way too much.
