It's a nice square look. The 10"/23 offset rear rims with a 285 is nearly identical rear poke as a 315 on a 11"/ 43 offset. The 35's will certainly fill the wheel wells better, and the 10"/23 offset rims will likely not have any clearance issues with the rear wiring harness.

Compared to picking up the car a month or so ago, it has come a long way. I'm now done with everything I wanted to do. Changed the oil and diff fluid today too, so all that's left is to drive and enjoy. I couldn't be happier with the square setup. The look is exactly what I wanted.

Well, once the first pilot hole is drilled, you aren’t left with many choices Sir. And thanks. Got lots of looks today. Went out for a drive with the Mrs after work.

Did you use a shop with a touch-less tire mounting machine? Once I order my rims and tires I need to find a local shop with a touch-less system, I don't want the black powder coat getting marred. It's proving more difficult than I expected to go touch-less.

I have a buddy with a shop and Hunter machines. Plus he wraps the outer edges with plastic when mounting tires.
In your case, I'd ask the manager of the shop to look at all 4 of your new wheels to confirm no scratches or marring. Then tell him you expect to pick up your mounted and balanced setup with the wheels looking exactly as they do now. If he can't promise you that, move on to the next shop

I called the local tire shop that I've been going to for years, I asked if they had a touch-less and they told me no, and they aren't aware of anyone in the area that does. He told me outright there's a good chance they would scratch them.lol

I went with the factory ZL1 spoiler. I wanted some 1LE and ZL1 in my SS, and I think it's a great combo.

Nope. That's the way it came from the factory.

I had the same issue when I got my MRR 017's. Went to 3 shops and found a touchless at Discount Tire. Try your local franchise, I think those are nationwide, right?
