12" wide rear wheels On a ZL1
I want to run a 20x12 43 offset on the rear. The number seem to work but i was wondering if anyone else has run a 12 and what tire size did they use? I am thinking of 335/30/20 or some 345/30/20 like cup 2s.

The wheel should fit fine depending on what tires you put on there, it could rub on the inner fender |

I'm honestly not seeing a 12 inch wheel fitting very well without sticking wayyyy out side of the fender. If you do it, be sure to post pics because a Corvette size wheel/tire would look sick on our cars.

12' wheels would look really nice.

So am i going to be the guinea pig? That's an expensive chance. But the numbers seem to all work and i have checked the clearances and its there. The front wheel is about 3 to 5 mm in and the rear is about 15 mm in from outer fender lip to rim face. with a 20x12 43 that's another 13 out, it will be close. I was also consider a 11.5 just to hit the min on a 335 tire. Whats the widest tire anyone has put on the 20x11 43 wheel? Was there any rubbing issues? Camber does come into play with these numbers.

I know a 11" wheel will stick out the same as a 12" wheel as the 12" just adds more on the inside. This is unventured territory. |
Here is my car with the OE Z28 wheels, 305/30R19 tires, and stock ride height:

Does anyone know if a 315/35ZR/20 will work on the rears of a ZL1

With a 20x12 43 offset, Thats plus 13 either way. The inside has room and it should make the outside flush or just under. I may just go wuth 11.5 43 offset to be safe. With that i can run a 345/30/20 cup 2 O.D. is 28.2 just under stock. They are on the narrow side of just 12.7 tread width. The wheel width minimum spec is 11.5.

So I ordered VS02 in matte brushed bronze
20x10 23 offset front with 285/35/20 Cup 2 20x11.5 43 offset rear with 325/30/20 Cup 2 and now I wait 5-7 weeks. |
