  • 96 Vett 17" zr1 wheels on 95 Camaro????

    Hello all

    I been a lurker here for awhile, found lots and lots of valuable infos. Thank you all.

    Now i need some quick and definite answer for my peace of mind. As the tittle said,

    1) Would 1996 Vett 17' ZR1 wheels fit on my 95 Camaro?. I am not sure if it means anything but the ad says "Collector Editions".

    2) And what tire size should I put on them?

    Thank you again.

    And with 17" front and 18" rear (Vett ZR1). What are the pros and cons of two difference sizes?

        Cons- are you can't rotate them other than side to side, and the tires will cost more.

        Pros- dont really know any. Sorry

                  +1 on that.

                  Also 17's in the front and 18's in the rear doesnt always look good. It depends on the sidewall of the tire to make it work.

                      All

                      I have just picked up the zr1 rims. Except for a 1.5 inch curb rash on one rim, they are in excelent condition. Came with all lugs, lug covers and lock for $200. Did I do good?. The rims are (2) 17x8.5x56 and (2) 17x9.5x56. They should be OK on the 95 camaro, right?

                      Now, as my original #2 question: What tire sizes should I get?

                      Thanks again all
