Default [PICS] 20"/21" Vossen Forged wheels on my new Z06!

Picked up an 2016 Z06 1LZ with only 850 miles about two weeks ago. It has the manual trans with an all black interior. It also only had the Stage 1 Aero, and I knew I wanted to change that.




I've been modding like crazy to get it to the point it is now. I first bought Carbon Flash smoothed/painted Spats to get all the trim on the car matching. I added the OEM Stage 3 front splitter and winglets. I added the OEM Stage 3 spoiler and clear wickerbill, and lastly installed Z06 replica style C7 Carbon side skirts to round out the package. I lowered the car on stock bolts, and trimmed the front bushings a bit. I tinted the windows 20% and added tint to the side marker lights. Lastly, I installed a set of Vossen Forged wheels. The fronts are 20x10.5 with 285/30R20 tires and the rear is 21x12.5 with 355/25R21 Pirelli P Zero tires. The offsets are very aggressive, and with the +1 wheel sizing, it makes for a mean stance! I took some pictures today so I wanted to share

Nice job. Your Z06 looks fantastic with the new wheels. It's always good to go in with a plan.

Any issues with tire/fender rubbing or bottoming out on bumps?

It does rub just a little on dips in the road, not necessarily big bumps.

Thanks guys!
