Thank you . For some reason no one seems to be a fan of those old 'vette rims. I kinda like them so I'll just keep them as the winter wheels lol.

From what I read, stock 2001 Z06 wheels are:
Front: 17 x 9.5" 54mm offset
Rear: 18 x 10.5" 58mm offset

So I believe the back tires will need 295/35/18's and fronts 265/40/17's? I most likely will put Nitto N05's all around since they're more practical than a drag radial for my use. Though it'd be cool .

Edit: Looks like NT05's don't come in 265/40/17. Can I run 255/40/17's in the front?

Run 275s in the front, that's what came stock on 17" 4th gen wheels.

If they are in fact factory Z06's with 58mm wheels, they might stick about a bit, but 4mm is very small.
