So whats the real deal on 11" zr-1's on a z?!?!

are these simply bolt ons? (i understand the fact that there are camaro specific offsets....) will i have to modify anything?

Might want to try a "search" the "Wheels and Tires" forum... I know I have answered that question many times there, with links to photos showing the modifications some people have had to make.

Moving to "Wheels & Tires".

me and my freind had different sets, mine were AFS replicas, and his were some other replica brand, supposed to be the same offset, and they looked very similar, but his rubbed and mine didnt. we put mine on his car and they did not rub. ive also fitted mine on an ls1 and lt1 trans ams, fit both cars without rubbing. some inner fender "messaging" was needed on my car, but not a big deal, 5 min. with a ball peen hammer did the trick...hope this helps, buy em and but some 315 nittos on the back, you'll love em

Ive heard lots of people say they didnt have to roll the fenders, even alot of them with lowered cars. So whe I got mine I was hoping/assuming i wouldnt have a problem. But I did, they rubbed so I had to roll the fenders. Seems to be hit or miss.
