C6 Grand sport wheels on C4 Z..
 
May have posted this at one time or another.....Do they require a spacer for the rears to run these?

Anyone have photos of our Zs with this combo?

I have Z06 wheels on my 92 ZR. The rears have 18mm spacers to maintain correct offset. The tires are flush w the fender. I use no spacers for the fronts
but due to using Z06 brakes and rotors, the fronts do not require spacers.
Due to the spacers on the rears, I am also using longer GM racing wheel studs.

Very nice...The Z06 wheel is also a consideration.....I like the dark gray look on the black colored As..

I liked the silver against the black rose.

Definately looks sharp against the black rose, that's a great color.....Do you find your car rides a little harder with the Z06 wheels?
Of course they are wider but the profile on the Z06 and grand sport tires are narrower than the stock Z size tires..The Z tires have more rubber from the rim to the pavement it seems..

I can’t say that I noticed any additional harshness. Mine has coil overs also.
The Michelin Super Sports are very nice and seems smoother than the Nittos
I had on it.
I think the shorter sidewalls give u better road feel which I like. Not sure how much shorter the sidewalls are. I have 345x19s in back and 285x18 in front.
I believe Phil has same sizes.
