After market wheels and LTPWS- what do you do? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

I've got an itch to get a new set of wheels for my car. I'm liking the '96 GS look as I think the black wheels will go well with the dark red metallic paint and black trim.

What are y'all doing for the LTPWS with after market wheels? I hate the idea of pulling/taping over the bulb/indicator. The straps and colored modules are out there but are so expensive that they put the project on the back burner.

Also, anyone know of a dealer that sells the GS style wheels with the correct offset? I'm not really an adapter kind of guy.

ditch the sensors.. you will need to find the true ZR-1 offset wheels for the rear and have them powder coated or painted.. GS wheel are only 50mm offset, they might still make the 36mm as those also fit the early C4s

Check with Efnfast
His wheels are black and the correct
offsets for a Z

I have a sensor or might still have one. I need to look to see the color

I have a red sensor, I thought it was blue which would have made Craig’s a complete set
