zr1 rear rims

cosmicvette · 12-21-2005, 03:11 AM

sorry for another wheel thread

I did do a search but didn't find the info I was looking for.

Im interested in getting a set of original zr1 11 inch rear rims for my non-zr1 vette (90), and was wondering if anyone knows if they will fit ok? I know they have a different offset, and I don't mind if they stick out of the guards a little.
I just want to know if they will bolt up and fit without any spacers or adapters?

:

thanks for your help!

just sold a pair...good luck they're getting very hard to find.

They will bolt up and they will stick out quite a bit ....some go with the GS flares and to my understanding you can install 87 Vette hubs to help tuck them in some.

yes they will fit fine but you would be better off getting a set of the GS offset rims/flares and leaving the ZR-1 offsets to the ZR-1's.

Thanks for your advice.

I agree, I definitly am better off getting the right offset. The idea of 11inch original 90 rims just sounded cool

I will keep my eye out for GS rims.

Thanks again

You looking for the sawblades or A-Molds? I 'm pretty sure you can get the sawblades all day long. If you don't mind replicas afswheels.com has em in the 36mm offset ZR1, or the 50mm offset GS in black, silver, polished aluminum, and chrome. Good luck on finding oem A molds. 91 ZR1 #2039

90 rims are not available for ZR-1s - plain and simple. Hope everyone saved theirs!

I guess I should send my extra set off to get refinished so they are nice again, picked up a cheap set of 90 rims that had some curb rash and need a new clear but what a deal just to have spares!

glad I have mine

Nope.

Very funky offset.

Has chromed 90's and the deep lug Amolds.
Unfortunately no silver finish....I've been looking for a good pair of 4 Amolds for awhile, but the closest I've come is one member here who has rears. I imagine it would be tough to fins just a set of fronts.

The front Amolds are the same for every 5 spoke that come on a vette I believe

17x 8.5 for collector edition cars. Not sure what came on the 95 pace cars either.
