Author Topic: 18's on a convertible Seanndogg New Member Member # 1041 posted                    Who has them and how do they fit ? Front and rear. Any LT1 verts?

He has the chrome Z06 wheels and they fit like they were made for it! [ 05.

The 18" x 9.5" fit fine all the way around no rubbing. Although it would be nice if they were avail. in a 50 mm or less offset. The 18" x 10.5" fit too, but need a little inner wheel well massaging. I am running reproduction Z06 wheels. 18" x 9.5" front and 18" x 10.5" back. -------------------- My Cars: 2000 Bright Rally Red Camaro SS Convertible 2002 Electron Metallic Blue Berger SS T-Top 2004 Silver Birch Metallic Silverado 2500HD Duramax Ext.

My car is also lowered. If you go wiht a 275/35/18 tire size you should be fine.

Heck, I had no problems and I'm running 19x9.5's with 38mm offset on all four corners with 275/30/19 tires. -Shawn -------------------- Check out my 94 25th Anniversary Trans Am Convertible http://www.ayresweb.com Posts: 5 | From: Central Arkansas | Registered: Jun 2002  |  IP: Logged Gary 97 WS6 T/A Conv 1st Gear Member # 1504 posted                    Sweet 25th.
