Hey so I'm going to be buying new wheels soon for my stingray and had a question: so far i've been leaning towards just getting replica zo6 wheels that fit the offset of the stingray, but lets say I did do this and wanted to get a wide body kit in the future, would it look weird and is there some specific wheel i should get instead if i intend to eventually go wide body?
I really like the deep concave look like this, but black:
, is something like this possible for a stingray?
Besides this, would love any rim/tire recommendations you guys have as this will be my first set, I don't do any tracking at all only spirited road driving, and it doesn't snow where I live
Sorry to say, you won't be able to get a concave look on the stingray without some kind of a widebody kit, or having the tires stick way out from the fenders (ugh). There's just not enough space between the axle flange and the edge of the fender.
That picture provided is way wider than even a stock wide body.No spats are on the fronts, all modified.The suspension is also way lower than a stock bolt will ever drop.
The bigger the concave,the bigger the money bag to get it dun and be drive-able
IN THE WEEDS for sure
After finding out the cost for a wide body kit(5000+) I actually decided that i love the way the car looks just how it is !!
With that said, is there 100% no chance of concave with a stingray fitment? no rims out there that give the look even a little?
Nothing that I've found and I looked for months, even looked at custom made wheels. No joy. But if you or anyone else finds or has found something, I'd love to learn about it.

I agree - there is such a difference in the offet on the narrow/wide body wheels that it will just not look right putting wide body width wheels on a narrow body car.

Sadly No, the Stingray requires very high offset that the wheels are going to be flat front and flat rear.
