Re: 17x11 ZR1 rims
What part doesn't fit? What is the offset of the wheels?
There are hundreds of people running those wheels with fat 315's, on 4th Gens, so they will fit with the correct offset. You may need to do a little hammering of the inner fenders. If the body is not centered side-to-side over the axle, you might need to correct it with an adjustable panhard rod. Cutting the edges of the jounce bumper brackets of is always a good idea, but only necessary if you jack the car by the body, allowing the axle to go to full drop.

How does your setup differ from mine?
