Forgeline 19x11 square wheels on my Z28

I really wanted square wheels so I can rotate at the track, have always run square wheels on cars I track.

Forgeline GA3R
19x11 with a 6mm spacer in front.

Fit is perfect.

Now deciding whether to sell my OEM wheels or not??

I hope you're running extended studs in front because you just eliminated four turns of engagement on your lug nuts.

Looks great, but I wouldn't sell the OEM wheels unless you need the space or money.

Sure did. Forgot to mention I needed longer studs on the front.

If you want to sell you OEM wheels, I'll take the fronts only if your willing.

That was one of the biggest disappointment with the Z28 that it's a track car without a square setup...WTF GM.. The other being no integrated garage door opener. :(

thanks..

Stock wheels look sooo much better. Not sure why you would do those and run a spacer, when you have the perfect fitting / looking OEM forged rims...

I love the idea of a square setup and the only person that needs to be happy with the car is yourself BUT the original setup looked much better in my opinion. Rock it however makes you happy but I would vote for keeping the originals also. Enjoy. Thanks for the pics.

Personally I prefer the look of stock wheels, but understand the benefit of being able to rotate the tires. The car was designed with slightly wider rears to improve handling so it'll be interesting to hear how it handles with a square setup. Roll (literally) with what works for you!
