  • Old style Z06's on the 97RS??

    Can anyone tell me if these Z06 wheels will fit my 1997 Camaro RS??

    http://www.finishlinewheels.com/spec...+Z06+SIZES%29/

    18" x 10.5" in back and i believe 17" x 9.5" in front (fronts should be okay I think)

    Offsets: +54mm Fronts, +58mm Rears
    I have no idea about the offsets to tell ya the truth


    any info would be helpful, thanks guys...

    Yep they should fit.
    What color is the car they're going on?

      Silver, here is My Cardomain


      It's all stock for now... I'm going to start with rims and tires and go from there, even though it's rather ridiculous of me to buy rims right before winter.... but i definitely wont put em on till next spring anyways.... what do you suggest I do next?.. I'm thinking a Flowmaster American Thunder exhaust system like my brother's and I definitely need a sound system, stock one is worse than My 89RS' stock system... idk.. we'll see after i recover from buying rims and tires..lol

        rethink the american thunder. when i was new to the fbody scene..i quickly got drew into wanting that system...look at ur budget and browse through sound clips. flowmaster mufflers IMO sound raspy midrange... however they do sound okay in other cars (particularly v8s)

          Those will look very nice. I have a 96 RS and an 02 that looks like the RS body style. I have Z06 wheels on both. They look GREAT!

              I know what ya mean about the raspy-sound, my brothers 94 and 97 both have amer thun. but the 97 has some square box in the system and it made his 97 so much crappier sounding than his 94, any way a system for a 94 would fit my 97 w/o too much fab.?


              btw what system would you recommend?

                  nah, never run at the track, first of all, its condescending when my dad's 7000lb. 07 GMC Sierra 2500HD w/ a 6.0L will smoke it..lol.. nd second i just bought the car so it still has crappy cheapo tires, and the closest track is 50 miles away (1/8th mile track- Skyview Drags), and now it is almost winter... hopefully next summer I'll have some baseline runs for ya... anyone have any idea what it should run? It's 100% stock, 3.8L, auto....
