Sebring Silver w/ Polished Z06 rims(No tires lol)

was gonna order a set of Kuhmos, but figured id check clearance, before i go through a whole ordeal. I just got em today and the product looks to be excellent, although thats just from my point of view. Looks like with 295/35/18 it'd be cutting close "REAL" close. Some pounding may be necessary, especially rolling the lip of the fender. Obviously not everyone is gonna be a fan and find it not fitting, but i like the look. Def. gives it a more "Look" than the GTA's. I'll just have to see :shrug:




This is a pic of the suspension in air, not under load

Can't wait to see the rims with tires. Those are my absolute favorite rims and in polished aluminum, even better. Chrome is too much for me. FYI, I just got my zr1's on and I had a problem clearing the tie-rod ends. Then again, mine were 17x9.5's and I only had a 1.75" adapter to work with. Still, be careful with those beautiful rims!!!

Are you running adapters on the back?

I didn't know it could be that close.

it looks as if spacers wont be needed for out back. When the suspenion is under load, there is somewhat clearance, I guess i'll just have to see when i get a set of tires.
