Had a chance today to go over to my friend Pete (not ZR-1) and try on his OEM Z06 wheels from his 2007 car. He has a silver Z.
Here's the album. Comments please.

You shouda bolted azz with those and not come back.

Nice!

looks good, if you go that route, you need to lower the car a bit to make it look perfect

darn ,dom those look great . they if they were polished or chromed would look almost like the ccw wheel a guy had on his blue zr1 a while back . what size are they?

Looks fantastic, gives the car a more up to date look. Needs lowered.
I may have to do that when I'm employed again.

Uummm...not sure

. I mean I like the wheels, always have but on the Zee, tires kinda look like rubber bands in some pics, as stated on here maybe lowering would help that look out a bit

. I'm not much help. Like the color of your car, BTW

Im with Ryan on this one. Maybe with the ZR1 repops just released.The tires do look rather small. Maybe somme CCWs or FM5s

When I get back to work I want a new set of wheels.Im thinking nice set of HREs of a one off set of Budniks.18-10 and 18-12.

Here's a couple of questions I have when contemplating these wheels

Thinking of putting some OEM Z06 wheels on my car with stock Supercars, I have several questions:

1. The rears will be 19" and nearly an 1" taller than the 17" wheel tire combo I have now. Will this in affect the ABS or ASR provoking a CCM code?

2. What about the TPMS? Would C6 sensors work in conjuction with 92 CCM?

3. Would I be better off using spacer with longer race wheel studs or an adapter?

Any thoughts?

Brad,

Those are 18x9.5/19x12. With a .5" spacer I think the rears would line up nicely and everything clears. Even with no spacer the only issue is a brake line that could easily be modified. The fronts are 40mm offset but there's a ton of clearance. The tires stick out ever so slightly. Almost a non issue IMO.
If this could work out, then it opens up the availablility of buying all those OEM wheels and tires the C6 crowd is selling.
Any comments on CompGrey color?
