Has anybody here had luck with 28/10/17" Hoosier on 17x11 wheel for c6z fitment. Curious what it takes to fit.

As long as the wheel offset is correct and barrel will clear brakes, there will not be any issues.

My car is lowered an inch or so. I run a 295/45/17 radial now. Every once and awhile driving on the street it will rub in the top of wheel well.

You would need to raise your ride height for these tires and/or change to a stiffer shock.

Thanks. I've got viking da shocks. I loosen them a little on the street. Obviously these will be track only. I'm just concerned about rubbing on the big end. I raised the car today going to align the car. Any hints on specs?

BTW- I have a used set of MT 26.0x11.50x16 MTs in my garage. They have been 1.40 on my old setup. If anyone is interested, I will sell them.
