Will 18's fit my Z?

Hey ya'll.. I have a 97 Z currently with stock 16's. I want to go 18 inch Z06 wheels all around. Will 18's fit in both front and back without modifications? Also which tire sizes are recommended.. I want to go with the shortest sidewall so it doesn't affect my 4.10 gear that much. Thank You

Yes, they will fit..As for what tires to use, I don't know for sure..I have even seen 19's on the front and 20's on the rear of a T/A before so, you'll be fine.

I have put 17s on the front and 18s on the back. The 18s are 11.5s and I had to hammer some of the metal in the well to keep it from rubbing out of turns.

Yeah they will fit easy. 20's are big. But a guy named chucky or something like that has 19's in the front and 20's in the back and he has one of the best looking z28's iv'e seen. It looks good with those rims. Of course i wouldn't do it because of how it will effect performance.
