They are 18x12 and 18x10 Carol Shelby wheels made by speedline. I have seen them for sale on the other site in the forsale section. The tires are BFG KDW 335/30/18 and 275/35/18. Both tire sets are stock height.

For sure those wheels look great on your car! Really nice looking ZR-1. Good luck with her and may the permagrin be with you.

Thaks for the compliments. The car was really well kept and Aaron at SGC told me about the car. If not for Aaron I wouldnt have known it was available. It looks like maybe 5k miles, maybe, The rims are pretty nice. Carter200 makes some center caps I am waiting to get made that say ZR-1.

I think lowering it was huge. Lots of these cars in my opinion are just way too high. I went to a wheel shop that installs lowering kits and asked them to pull the front leaf for me. When they handed it to me I took out the 4 aluminum spacers and cut the pivots down to about 1/4 inch of rubber left. I didnt install the wedges. On the back I bought the bolts from ecklers and took those down to just 3 threads left and thats the look after about a 3-4 days of letting it settle.

Congratulations Mario on your purchase. In my opinion, the 91-93s have the just the right design regarding the wheels and interior. I personally don't care for what they did to the dash and steering wheel, not to mention the A-molds, with the 94-95s. Your modifications appear are well done. Nice job!
