ZO6 wheels on Lt1

The ZO6 wheels come in two sizes, 18X10.5 and 17X 9.5 im guessing that the 18's go on the rear.... now my question is How does it look when you do this (17's on the front and 18's on the rear). or is it better just to have the 17x9.5 all the way around? Pictures of both would be greatly appreciated..

Thats a little big. I'm running 18 x 9.5's all the way around and i love them. Pics in sig. I'd assume the wheels you are talking about are OEM ZO6's. I use to have 17in front 18 inch rear y2k vette wheels. They looked good but i got rid of them because i could never rotate the tires with out having to bust down the tires and switch rims.

Re: ZO6 wheels on Lt1

I agree with Z95M6. i run 18x9.5 all the way around with 53mm backspace and they look good. Almost to the edge of the fender all the way around. BTW mine are the 2006 Z07 wheels. I'm waiting to fill up my box camera before I can post pics.....should be pretty soon since I got new wheels and a new motorcycle!!

If you want the staggered look you can go 18x9.5 and 18x10.5, pics in link pages 1 and 7
