Default Wheels

I have a 1994 Z07 with 17x9.5. All fours.

Looking at ordering some C6 Z06 wheels 4 17x9.5

Also saw. 2 17x9.5 and 2 18x9.5

What would be the reason for larger wheels. Just looks????

Yep, just looks...The nice thing about having wheels all the same size is that you can fully rotate them on the car...With the 17s front, 18s rear, you can rotate side to side only,, and that's only if you don't get directional tires...WW
