I like the Series One w a gray PC center hub. Someone had them done that way on a black ZR. Looked awesome.

Just make sure whoever you use that they know that brake set up is on the car. Most use a custom hat on the rotor that will push the wheel out some and this will cause wheels with an offset for a normal C4 (Z or not) to stick out.

Daniel

BTW those look like aftermarket A-Molds if you run OEM you will have just a hair more room.
You can move the center collar out on the Series Ones to clear. I haven't done it but some of the other guys here have done it.

Sometimes clearance is an issue regarding the radius of the wheel and not the face of the caliper. =Jeff= has Series ones and the C5 calipers he had were very close to the barrel of he wheel. He also needed to move the hub outward for clearance. His Brembos have better clearance.

That seems to be how these calipers are with the current A-Molds... the radius is REALLY tight, I almost think the passenger side has made contact and dragged a little at some point. ---

Alwayscode390,

I also run Fikse Profil 10s - 18x9.5 front and 18x11 rear - hand polished by Jagdpanzer.
I suggest that you consider possible conversion to 6 piston (front) and 4 piston (rear) hi-perf calipers while selecting which wheels to go with. Deep dish style wheels exudes "performance" look from the 70s to 90s. But deep dish design don't work well with modern day hi-perf calipers.


Car had just gotten off the floor jacks and the suspension had not fully settled yet.
