Buddy of mine is putting out the same HP as me and he's on 888's and he hooks and goes so.

This is what sux. It is my daily so. I might lean towards the 888's. I've already ordered the DR's. If they handle like crap, I'll just set them aside and order the R888R's.

I'm selling my Zl1 anyways, so I'll just throw them in with the sell I guess or sell them if I have to. I'll know within 100 to 200 miles if I want to keep them.

Hey guys. I posting on every thread I see regarding 305/35/20 MT DRs. Mine are mounted on my factory 15 ZL1 rims and They rub on my inner fender on my 18 ZL1. I tried 8mm spacers but that only leaves 4.5 turns on mynlug nuts. How are you making these tires fit?

Drivers side only? Take the fenderwell liner off and move that connector and harness. Lots of threads on this. Stay away from spacers but if you do them make sure you are getting at least 8 Turns on the lug nuts. If less you will need longer lugs or ditch that tire an wheel setup.

Also it's possible 35s are too tall relative to the front tire diameter. If so Stabilitrac will keep you from tracking.

So I was able to run my DRs on the street with a 4mm spacer. Got 8 turns on my lug nuts. There was still some rubbing going over bumps but all wil be ok at the strip. I did a burnout on the street and picked up some loose gravel on the way home. It appears the gunning is from the rocks that got stuck in my tires.

ZL1’s with nitto NT05r, were you 315/30/20 and if so any rubbing or fitment issues? Stock ones are finally wore out and need replacing. @800rwhp.

Thanks !
