  • Older Zo6 wheels on ThirdGen??

    Hello MIfbody
    I have an opportunity to grab some Z06 rims, for a nice price.

    I am wondering if they fit on Thirdgens.
    I know I would need spacers in the back, but I do not know if they will work.
    Does anyone have experiece with this?
    I looked in the Search and saw nothing on this.

    I have seen some large wheels and tires on Thirgens, moston this site actually. Looking for some help here
    Thank you for your time.

    All 4 are 17X9.5. The front tires are Nitto 555 255/40/17 and the rears are Nitto 555R 275/40/17.

    You wll most likely need 2 inch spacers front and rear depending on the Z06 offset...I believe there were two different offsets offered in the Z06.

            third gens + a dish rim = sexy.
            third gens + a flat face rim =

            IMO anyway

            the pic farther up looks ok......nothing that would be on my car though.
