The 88-96 have the same 56mm offset so no problem fitting the 9.5 inch x17 wheels. The five spoke A molds come in grey, black or chrome.

A lot are now fitting the C6 wheels straight on the 88-96 models, but the early 84-87 with 38mm offset need adapters.

The 11 inch wheels come in two offsets i believe, the grand sport had a different offset to the ZR1 11 inch wheels.
(but do not take my word for it is only what i have read on this forum)

You will need the fender flares to fit 11 inch wheels under the rear without them sticking out the body, the 84-87 can fit them with some negative camber to keep them within the body.

They will stick out around an inch from the body with the standard camber settings.

(The ZR1 has wider rear quarter panels to fit the 315 rubber with 11 inch wide rims on the back with room to spare)
