Default Narrowing Z06 Wheels
Has anyone narrowed a set of Z06 wheels? I have a Z06 equipped with the Z07 ceramic brakes and was wanting to know if it can be done and how narrow can it be done if possible. I will be running 15" welds in the rear but was wanting skinnies up front without having to change the brakes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They make zo6 replicas that are more narrow the the real zo6 rims, but it sounds like you want even thinner
