Does anybody know if they are making the new ZO6 wheels in 17". I have the old ones now in 18" but it just seems there are so many more options when you have a 17" wheel its a lot eaiser to choose a drag radial. I know nitto makes an 18" but i have felt the nitto compared to the M/T and the nitto is extremely hard. I have also had people tell me the nittos suck. Let me know if anyone has seen these wheels in 17".
Thanks

The only drag radial they make for a 18" is the G-Force and they Suck....

I think he meant 17" C6 Z06 rims.

I've been looking for a set myself. Just found these C6 Z06 replicas in a 17x9.5 with a +54 offset. I'm not very good with offsets... is that about the right amount?

Oh yeah, and the Nitto is a street tire with good traction. The M/T or BFG DR is a drag tire that's street legal. BIG difference.

If you don't want to swap wheels when you get to the strip (or before you leave home, if you live relatively close by), go with the Nittos.

Those same wheels are alot cheaper here, but then again, the build quality could be less. And I like how they have a nice Firebird/Camaro section

Their 17" model is an 8.5" rim... I don't know about OP, but I want something a little wider than that. The ones I posted are 9.5".

Re: C6 ZO6 Wheels
yeah, I see that, sorry. I know the ones just to the right of the chrome ones you like have a 17 x 9.5, I was looking at those for my car, or the hyper silver ones of the one you like, and I thought I remembered them to have offered it in the ones you liked as well. My bad, sorry!
