Fit perfect. No grinding
Just have to order wheels for stock SS and they will fit the Zl1 also

I ordered those exact wheels through ECS (East
Coast Supercharging) and got a great deal and great service....

Check with Matt @ ECS...

Thanks Sprspt for the info on the drag set up. I wanna get the exact same for my car. Might you have the exact part # for the front and rear wheels and front tire size handy or some further specs on the back spacing etc.?

What pad height do you guys get on the Camaro with the big Brembo's? Because Someday I want to get bigger brakes for my Corvette but I'm wheel shopping for my car :D

I thought you had to change the lower control arm to use 17" wheels.

Bolted them on and went to the track. No rubbing anywhere.

What part of his quotes don't you understand? How many more times does he need to say it before you believe what he said???

Looking for an 18" drag wheel that fits over the rear break caliper on the zl1. Would appreciate any ideas or links. If you have a setup with an 18" wheel + drag racial/slick. Feel free to post pics :)

Man - I still swear by "15's...PERFECT amount side wall flex to stick. Just coils up, sticks and launches you! But don't know the fit issues on a Camaro. :iono:

Well you don't have to get huffy about it. If you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything.I had a friend that had a problem with 17" wheels hitting the lower control arm.

You're right...my apologies. I was in a negative mood at the time and took it out on you and didn't have a right to. I will play nice now. :thumbsup:
