Even the older plastic center caps won't fit? That is the spare set that I have.

Did you need to run any kind of a spacer? I have a set of classics in 18x12 with a 335 tire and I want to get them installed and everyone keeps telling me they wont fit. I think they will fit with a spacer but I have no clue what size. And they look great on your car

Looks great. They always do on these cars.


For some info, I am running CCW Classics 11.5" rears with a 315 and I have no clearance issues. I still have the rear brake ducts installed as well.

What size tire are you running on the fronts? Also, do you have a pic of looking down the side of the car?

Car looks awesome!! I've always loved the classics on a Z!

Been away from the Vette scene for a few years, just picked up an '04 Z06 a few weeks ago.

I know this is an older thread, curious as to the type of tires on that gorgeous beast.

Im running the same wheels, and after talking to the OP a few years back when this post was new, I went with 275/35/18 on the fronts and 305/35/18 on the rears. These filled out the wheel wells quite nicely on the 11.5 inch rear without sticking out and without rubbing. The only problem is, there arent too many tires offered in a 305/35/18.
