17x11 & 17x9.5 zr1 rim question

dream89 · 01-14-2003, 07:41 AM

hello everyone i am considering buying some 17x9.5 front zr1 rims and 17x11 rear zr1 rims for my 89 vette. there are two offsets that are listed. 56mm & 38mm for the front rims and 50mm & 36mm for the rear rims. could anyone please help me on the correct offset for my 89 vette?? also would 315 35 17 tires stick out that much from the rear wheel well?? thanks for all your suggestions.

For your car you want the +50 & +56 offsets. The 36/38s are for example meant for an 84 vette.

56mm fronts and 36mm rears would be used for a 90-95 model ZR-1.

36mm rears also fit on 84-87

If you're heart isn't set on ZR-1 style rims, I am selling some American Racing 5 stars with brand new autocross rubber mounted on them. The wheels would be definitely cheaper than OEM and you can have the tires for what I paid from TR. Let me know.
