Re: zo6 wheels
i just put zo6 rims on my firebird and they will fit on fine. my z06 rims are 275 wide or 10.5 inches so what you need to do is jack the rear end up by the axle. If you dont jack it up by the axle, the rear tires will rub the bump stops and you might ding up your rims and screw up your tires. once the car is down its fine unless you hit a pot hole thats like 1/2 foot deep. but at that point your car would bottom out :P you can look at my car domain to take a look.

Re: zo6 wheels
let me be specific. i was refering to a different rim, i've seen people with rims/rites that sitc out one or two inches past the wheel wells and i was wondering if the front tires, if wider, would rub aganist the wheel wells when at a full sideways turn. as for other knowlage, i have an ls1 sitting in my garage waiting for me to have it cooked out while i clean the other parts up and look for a swap car w/o an engine.
