Pictures of your aftermarket wheels.
I would like to change the wheels and tires on my 90 Z. I am currently running a factory set of GM 17x11 rear and 17x9.5 94-95 wheels but would like to see what everyone is running in 18 or 19's. I was thinking about selling the car in the spring but have gained a renewed interest in it. Wheels and tires make such a huge impact on bringing these cars up to date.. other plans for mild performance upgrades are also being considered. I still own my 93 40th Z with less then 10,00 kms and other then the battery it is 100% original so I am thinking its time to mod the 90. These cars are a lot of fun and with all the new technology out there and advancements in many areas, I think they can be clean, fast and up to date style wise. I would love to see your wheels and any mild mods you may have done to your ZR-1 as I plan on making this my winter project. Ideas as also welcome.
Merry Christmas to all of you.

Unfortunately, I think aftermarket wheels have a tendency to look period, or dated after just a few years......that is why I am really happy with my Fiske wheels......they are a clean, and relatively simple design that IMHO has stood the test of time, and will look great forever. I have 18" wheels 335/30s out back and 275/35 tires up front. It is the perfect look for me. Fills the wells, and the car sits nice. I have seen the same wheel look not quite as nice in different sizes....My $.02
I really like white powder coated wheels on white (white only) cars though also....especially this style Diemag

HRE 18-9.5 and 19-11.5. I'm running a 275/35 on the front and a 325/30 on the rear. I think the 275 on the front is a little too short but the other tire option of a taller tire might have been a bit too tall.
