[/URL][/IMG]Here are some pics using 1/4 inch spacers all the way around on stock tires. I think it does a nice job of bringing the tires near flush with the fender, more so on the back than the front. I think it will look great when I go with 285/345 sizing this spring.

Did/have you had any issues with those extended tip lugs nuts? I just spoke to a couple of people and they highly recommended against it, but haven't tried it, so I thought I'd ask someone who has. I currently have 1/4" out back with stock studs and nuts and want to do 3/8 up front.

They're telling me they will back out or that the extended tip won't go into wheel hole and will damage the wheel if I force it. Mine haven't loosened up to this day and it's been a few months and I've driven it hard. And those are the standard lug nuts. ETs can only help.

So OEM on my C6 ZO6 is 9.5x18 +40mm front and 12x19 +59mm rear. I was thinking of getting some new Forgestar CF5V or F14 wheels in gloss black; 10x19 front and 12x19 rear. Should I order them 10x19 +30mm front and 12x19 +53 rear? I would be buying 295/30ZR19 and 345/30ZR19 MPSS tires to go with them. What are your thoughts?

Did you ever install this size adapters you are talking about? I think 15mm up front might be perfect with flushing the wheel. but in the rear it might be too much. looking to do some spacers myself too
