While the oem z/28 wheel may be the best quality wheel for the price, there are better options for similar money or even less money in regards to street drivability. The wide front tires cause the car to follow every groove in the road and also stick out too far. They require the driver to concentrate 100% of the time just to maintain their lane on the highway or when negotiating curves.

All of the wheel experts I spoke with including John Purner of CCW recommended not using the Oem sizes for the street. On the track, they are king.

Using 26 offset 11.5" wheels in front with longer studs and big spacers is not advisable and will look horrible.

Ideally a staggered setup with 275-285 in front and 305-315 in back should significantly improve street manners. If rotating tires is important to you, a square setup with 10-10.5" wheels would work best as long as the offsets are chosen wisely.
