Thanks, those two together is a great shot! They make great track/race cars, mine really fell off the slippery slope. Now like I've said I want to to get another Z06 for the street as they're so easy to live with and fun to drive. My turbo was a great car but to keep it at peak performance it seemed you are always chasing things like boost leaks.

You went with flares, yet your tires still stick way out. Why bother with flares?
Post a rear side shot, wheel/tire specs.

Jetz my rear rims do stick out a little. This is something I’ve thought about for a while. See this was the first C5 with the super deep F14’s in the country so when I ordered them no one really knew what was needed so the offset is slightly off. +26 is what they sent them to me with +24.5 is what they got them down to and +24 is what’s needed to sit under the car what’s needed to sit under the car right. At the moment I’ve have been thinking about switching it up I tend to like a simple 5 Star style rim but I’m not sure what I want just yet. Even thought about selling the z06 lately. But who knows where I’ll land on it as of now it’s gonna stay the way it is. People seem to love it when they see it so it’s not a big deal. I’m assuming you don’t like it which isn’t a big deal either.

TWS. Note: these are 325-30X18 rear tires on 12X18" wheels without flares. They DO fit beneath the fenders without any contact

Both these look ready to rip!! But who makes a 325/30/18? There is Pirelli slicks in 325/660-18 and 325/705-18

Am I missing something don’t know what this has to do with my ride? After looking at the pic you posted those look like deep F14’s my rear rims are super deeps 18x12’s. They look like bowls
