Shock Travel Limiters??

OK I've widened a set of Z06 wheels 1.5" to the inside. I will be running 335's and lowering the car about 1". Do I need these Limiters and if so where can I get them?

No sir, I'm doing my own mini tub. I need to know if limiting the shock travel is a must and where I can get the correct set up with out having to buy the whole LPE mini tub kit.

Called LPE today and they sold me JUST the Shock limiter set up. Talked to Kevin (i think that's his name) he was very helpful. They got it shipped out to day as well.

I would love to see some pics of the wheels and wheel and tire combo. I bet this is going to look mean.

Well here are the tires. The wheels are at the powder coat shop. They are 18x10.5 and 18x12 C5Z wheels.
