Default Will Sawblade 91-93 ZR-1 rims fit my 1991 w GS Flares?

Okay I'm sure this has been asked before, though I did a search for the info and couldn't seem to find anything on it.

I won't to put 1991-1993 ZR-1 sawblade style rims on my 1991 C4, which is not a ZR-1. Will they fit with the use of the GS flares?

Much Thanks

Yes, I have both on my car (ZR-1 Rims and GS Flares).

But I'll be getting rid of my sawblades soon for ZR-1 A-molds.

If you use a ZR-1 36mm offset instead of a Grand Sport 50mm offset,the tires will stick out past the GS flares.

I stand corrected. Didn't realize the flares were that wide.

Thanks for the great pictures... my faith has been restored! Time to get the flares and get the rims all finished up!

Do you have pictures from the back and the side? I am thinking about the same set up - Wider is better!
