*Wheel Spacers*
I was wondering if anyone knows a place where I can order some wheel spacers for my 03 Z06 that will fit on the stock studs, say half inch to an inch. I'm just looking to push out the tires a tad bit so they sit more even with the fender. I had some light weight ones on my camaro but I forgot where I picked them up. Thanks for all the help and I hope I can find some!

Here's one place. Get them hub centric. I doubt you'll be able to use your oem studs with anything over 3/8" and remain safe...

Yea I did!! I big apology about not getting around to posting pics of it!! IV been swammped with work and school so again, I'm sorry. They came out AWESOME! The setup is an inch adapter in the rear and 10mm in front. I did have to grind off a bit of the stock studs on the rear but it was worth it. Eventually ill get new studs when I do a brake combo. Motorsport Tech is the place to go for them!! I'm stoked how great they came out.
I will be posting pics up soon of the car, this weekend. I had a buddy of mine who does professional photography took some shots so ill have a thread on my project this weekend so check it out. Ill post a pic of the spacers on here as well!

Here you go! Got a few good pics of what the hub adapters did. Im on stock Z06 wheels, 18/17's with the 1 inch adapter out back and 10mm in front. Car is lowered just a little on stock bolts. I plan on lowering it more to have it sit real nice and I plan to run the adapters till I get bigge rims and tires! I will have more "photoshoot" pics soon so I will make a thread of pictures of the whole car and the mod project I just got done with!
