Default got my z06 wheels on

got my new motorsport z06 wheels on today! these photos are off my phone so excuse the quality i will up load some better ones off my camera when i get a chance. the wheels are 17x8.5's with 275/40s in the rear and 245/45s in the front. I used a 2" spacer all the way around although i would personally switch to a 1.875 or 1.75 if i were to do it again and i still may..

before


after

Nice! Those look very good. What year Z06 and how much did they cost? If you rather not post exact, just do ball park.

Looks very good

thanks guys.. the pics really dont do it any justice.. it looks alot better in person.. and the handling sure is there now.. the prostreet style stance was cool and all but this is way more functional... the wheels are just a replica wheel.. you can pick them up on ebay.. i believe TomZwheelz on ebay has the best prices.. i talked my local wheel guy into beating or matchin toms price.. it was 570 for all four wheels and all the lug nuts, mounting and balancing. the spacers were 50 apeice and i already had the tires.. the whole swap cost me 770.. and i sold my draglites for 500.. so basically for 270 bucks i got a whole new look..
