Forgestar drag pack?
I have wide body rear fenders so I know the rear 17x11's will work. Does anybody know if the front 17x4.5 will work with narrow body front fenders. Everytime I see a zo6 with them they look a little tucked in up front so I'm wondering if they will be dead even with mine or actually stick out.

The skinnies are less sunk into the fenders than the oem wheels. I have them on my C6Z. So I'm betting they'll poke on a base C6 fender a little.
if you aren't worried about it poking out a little I'm a distributor for them and can get you a deal

is that pretty safe for the track? I had welds on my last car I just don't want to pay that much again while I'm doing the blower and converter and all.
I have z51 brakes as well.

I'd like to see and I'd for sure buy some if it wasn't bad. I've seen the racestars stick out on the front a little bit but not much. If it was the same with these it may not be bad.

There is no way that the 17x4.5 or 17x5 are going to look right on a narrow body. These are the"Drag Series" 17x5's and 17x11's on my Z06. If someone is local to Indianapolis with a base model, I could meet up with them and let you guys see.
