C6 GS Wheels - INSTALLED!!! :)
Well I got the wheels on and set up correctly. Hopefully I'm not double posting... 18mm spacer on the driver side. 23mm spacer on the passenger side, I could probably install a 25mm and it would match the driver side perfectly.

Re: C6 GS Wheels - INSTALLED!!! :)
Pardon my ignorance, but why wouldn't you have the same size spacer on both sides?

Re: C6 GS Wheels - INSTALLED!!! :)
Are u using stock rotors up front? If so, how far outboard of your fenders are the tires? Until I installed front Z06 brakes and rotors on mine, which made the C6 40mm offset work in place of the stock 56mm.
Also, did th extra 1/5" in the rear spacer make that much difference visually? I'm using 18mm both sides. Joe, the passenger side is slightly inboard compared to the driver's side. Last edited by XfireZ51; 12-04-2016 at 11:30 AM. |

Re: C6 GS Wheels - INSTALLED!!! :)
I like the look.....C6 Z06 wheels and C6 GS wheels give the Z def more of a muscular stance......How do they compare as far as weight wise to the stock set up? Any idea? Nice shop by the way......

Thanks Dom, I noticed that before, but dismissed it as an optical illusion.
