Will my 11" a mold rims ( 36 mm off set) with 315's fit my 99 FRC?
Thanks
Dave

Yes. Wanna sell 'em?

17x11x50mm rear
17x9.5x56mm front

I have the above A molds that fit fine on my c5z. They are the 1996 Grand Sport coupe rims.

What car are your's from? The old zr1 rear rims?

Sorry you would be number 12 in line if I decided to sale. Which I'm not.

opel

Yes the old ZR1 rears.

They will stick out 14 mm more than the 17x11 GS rears, which stick out about an inch on a C5.

I assume the above is correct. So the rears would fit (and stick out) , fronts MIGHT rub at full lock (and stick out). If your are slammed down that's another kettle of fish.



There seem to be two distinct approaches to fitting wheels/tires to a car.

One group would rather die than drive a car where the wheel extends outside the body lines, the other (my group) could care less so long as it facilitates the preformance envelope of the car.

The ZR1 offset will work in the rear although the tires will stick out quite a way. It may not work in the front since the offset will push them out to the point the arc the tire follows when the steering is turned may cause it to impact the outside of the wheel well. When I ran the GS 17x11 on the front of my C5s there was very little room between the tire and wheel well when I turned the tires. An extra 14 mm outwards would probably make the tires hit the outside of the fender at the front of the wheel well and maybe hit the rear of the wheel well as well.

Thanks guys I was afraid there was going to be interference. Can the stock 18" rears be run on all four corners?

Yes

Good lord, is that what these go for now? I have scores of A-molds, although mostly the 17x9.5's which I'm sure aren't as valuable. And they're definately not like new.

I think the 11" were $450 each, from the Chevy dealer! Didn't know I was sitting on black gold.

Ditto: I have a set of original A molds off my CE, and two sets I used to AX and track it a few times. As I recall the track set are 12"s all around and the AX set fronts @ 9.5 and 11" on the rear. Both sets look like new. Somebody tell me what they're worth.
