Project progress.... 92'ZR-1 - Page 2 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

so narrower tires which translates to narrower wheels, I would guess 10" in back and 8" in front..

I would assume the narrow tires were to get something that did not require spacers.

Since you stated you never posted details about your brake set-up.. May I ask what you are doing (if anything) for a parking brake?

Also what is the cost you have invested in your 1-off brake setup..

Yep thanks

What about parking brake?

-=Jeff=- · 11-05-2018

I do, but using stock rear brakes still.. my fronts are Wilwood 6p but I am limited as to what fits under the Shelby Wheels

-=Jeff=- · 11-05-2018

Dunno, to me I am not sure of the 19s.. I would need to see your car or a C4 with 19s in person to make a clear judgement

-=Jeff=- · 11-05-2018

Yeah, I think seeing it in person helps though. You see at at angles you are used to.

Yeah I use eBrake on my Z06 rear. I think the 18/19” stagger gives the C4 a very nice rakish look to it that enhances the low front end to taller rear end wedge shape.

"HULK" is coming along nicely

Nice looking car!

Do you think it is kind of ironic to ask for help and knowledge about the LT-5 and not want to share how you did a big brake upgrade?
