I went with the chrome 11" Zr1s myself! I was lucky enough to find the deep dish rear wheels like the original ZR1 wheels

What a positive change. I love the look and you get to get silver rotors and red calipers. Congrats!

I'm not a fan of ZR-1 wheels, but they sure make your Vette look 200% better.

great lookin set of wheels, really updates the look of the car. I have polished zr1 style wheels from OE Wheel Dist. with the 17x11 out back and Nitto Drag Radials. I love the way they look, and they hook up very nice!

The front rims are 17 x 9.5 with a +38mm offset and the rears are 17 x 11 with a +36.5mm offset. I have been cruising around with them and so far, no rub. I haven't had a chance to take it out for a spirited drive.
If they do rub I will post about it. You can count on it

Had I known you had the 11's in the rear, I would have taken a closer look, cause I am thinking of that setup for my next set of wheels.

I just did the same a few weeks ago. Looks great on yours. Here are mine - although I decided on the 9 1/2 on all 4
Amazing what a set of wheels can do for a car.
