what offset does the SS need to clear the brakes

Michael_Js · 10-29-2009, 04:54 PM

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but these are the current wheel offsets:

20 x 8-inch front and 20 x 9-inch rear flangeless, polished aluminum wheels
Offsets: +35mm (front) / +40mm (rear)
bolt patterns: 120x5xm14

They obviously clear the brakes

You need the spoke to rim offset to know for sure. Just because the wheel has correct offset doesn't mean it will clear the outside face of the calipers.

If someone has a 18" Z06 wheel they can measure, it would help. They DO clear.

Find a good wheel shop that can custom fit wheels, then ask them to get blank wheels, such as "Lexsani", then drill and custom fit them to your ride. These of are one piece, but good quality. If you've got money, then you may look at 2 or 3 piece wheels. I did the one piece , and the fit and ride is great. Look in community pictures an album to chek out baby02.

Im working on setting up a list of the right wheels that fit. As for now just a offset of 40mm does not work. There are the other issues like the spokes not bowing out far enough. stay tuned.

I have forged 5 spoke wheels from CCW and bought through ADM Performance. They are 20" wheels and are 10 inch wide in front and 11 inch in back. The tires do not stick out beyond the fenders at all. Pirelli 275's in front and 305's in back. They use the future Z-28 wheel offsets. The wheel/caliper clearance is tightest on the rear calipers and big clearance in front. FYI and good luck.

now wait a minute, you have the wheels, right? most wheels have the offset on them, and if they were custom made and they didn't put that info on them we could understand, BUT you could you measure them and tell us. its not that hard.

Sack Rat 2SS · 10-30-2009, 06:46 PM

Two sets of wheels were custon made for ADM Perf. by CCW. The second set are on a car in Houston. The offsets were not printed/stamped on the wheel. Even if I measure you would not want to put blind faith in my calculations anyway, as accurate as they might be. OK, below is what I found regarding the Z-28 wheels and offset's. I believe this is what ADM Perf. gave CCW to use in building the wheels. I am not for sure as you would want to check with ADM and or CCW. Good Luck

Ask and you shall recieve. These are the specs for the Z28 wheels so they are larger then the stocker SS wheels.

EXACTLY! You need the caliper clearance area measurement. Offset, backspacing, etc. don't mean much when trying to clear calipers.
