19x12's
 
Do you guys know of anyone that have put the new c6 zo6 actual 19x12's (325/30 tires) on a F-body and better yet have pics?

And have any of you tubbed or mini tubbed your F-body?



Thnx

I saw that some one did it on one of the LS1 boards but can't find it.If I remember right it took half inch spacers and the wheels stuck out about a 1/4 inch outside the fender well.

315s are as wide as you can go by just getting a bigger wheel, and sometimes you still need to pound in the fender well. anything bigger will prolly work with a tad more work, but i wouldnt wanna try to run that tall and wide of a tire in an fbody. 17x11 with a 315-35-17 is really easy to do and looks badass.

Never seen 325... My HRE's are 315 in rear and its sweet. I kinda miss having rubber stick out of the wells. ;)

What size rim is the 315 on?

Amurican_Muscle 11-06-2006 06:58 PM

Euhhh... They are 315/35/ZR17, but I can't quite remember the rim size... I want to say they are 10.5". I'll look into that some more.

My 315's are on a 11" wide wheel.

That's kewl, 17's are not too bad to fit... There are a few people around here with the 315's and I think one that has 335's on 17's. But 19x12's with 325/30 tires is a different story, I am wandering if they would fit at all...

Amurican_Muscle 11-06-2006 07:08 PM

Yeah... mine are definately either 10.5" or 11". Might be 11" cuz the sidewalls are pretty flush with the rim. 19"x12" seems like a tight fit ... I'm really not sure. You probably would have to modify the whole well.

FORCE_FED_Z 11-06-2006 07:44 PM

I'm lookin at hopefully running some 325/50 15's this spring- I'll be sure to post pics and how I got them to fit. From what I have been reading, it doesn't look like it it will be that bad.

in my opinion, anything bigger than a 17 doesnt belong. 18" wheels actually raise the car slightly. if dropped 2" 18s look fine, actually, they look awesome. but if you go bigger like 19, 20, or even 22s like a certain someone...lowering will not compensate for how much taller the wheels are, even with airbags.

I don't like huge wheels either, they make the car look like an suv (supposedly the huge wheel thing was started in the southeast, and judging by the amount of 80's junk cars with them I believe it, the owners family trees do not fork)

I don't like anything bigger than a 17" really, but that's me. Once in a while an 18" does look okay, but anything bigger, I just don't like.

I guess you guys don't like the 19's on the new Vette? Or the 20's on the new Saleen? Or 19" Dodge Viper rims? And the new concept Camaro had 22's

1.) no, but I don't like the Vette anyways; 2.) same answer; 3.)again no, but I like the car; 4.) I HATE the wheels on the Camaro concept. Its the car's biggest turn off to me.
