6spdg37s Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Well 2nd mod for the Z06 (the mild 2 wild being the first) is 17 x9.5 chrome C5 z06's for my rear and im going to be mounting some 275-40-17 hoosier drag radials on them... After speaking to a whole bunch of various people... the 17's do fit despite that most dealers don't know that guys at southern car parts are awesome and they were able to hook me up with the price. 360 shipped for 2 rims ! should have been around 500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See ya bro... definitely... I was gonna shoot you an email but figured you would see the post. I am also going to be picking up a cordless 1/2 drive impact wrench either crafstman or dewalt. I figured it will make my life easier not to mention a great tool to have in general. And you buy a quality tool and it will last you forever !

IMADreamer Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Those look sweet and you are going to hook like a champ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6spdg37s Posted May 23, 2010 Author Share Posted May 23, 2010 Those look sweet and you are going to hook like a champ. I went skinnier versus the 315s or 345s because the slippiage will be made up somewhere and I prefer its my tires versus my clutch you know...

6spdg37s Posted May 23, 2010 Author Share Posted May 23, 2010 ^ Chris I'll try to take a shot when I do the test fit.. which is just pure rim no tire to triple check clearance. I seriously highly recommend southern car parts. If for some reason these rims dont fit they are letting me send them back and purchase different ones...Not to mention I called them on a saturday and a person answered the phone and the person was friendly and located in America.

Chewy Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Looks great! I hate to say this but I bought a corded impact from Harbor Freight for 50 bucks 10 years ago and use it to this day to replace wheels and other odd jobs. I only use it a few times a year but it works GREAT! Just thought I'd toss that out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
