ZL1 OEM wheels
 
I am thinking of selling my 2015 2SS 1LE and ordering a 2019 ZL1 in the "Crush" color. (I love that orange !)


Will the 2013 OEM ZL1 5 spoke wheel fit on a 2019 ZL1 ? (are the offsets the same ?)

I have a full set, and to be perfectly honest, I really don't like the 2018 ZL1 OEM style of wheel. (I believe that the 2019 ZL1 wheels are the same as the 2018)

Thanks !

The 2013 OEM ZL1 wheel offsets are :

front 23mm

rear 43mm

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section.

Moderators, Please move this thread to the wheel/tire section if need be.

Thanks !

They will fit, but you might change your mind about the wheels it comes with if you haven't seen them in person. Some of the best looking wheels out there.

I have to agree here. I really like the look of the stock wheels much better in person than I thought I would when I first saw pictures.

The ZL1 wheel offsets: (front) 20. (rear) 43. So they should be fine. Anyone know if the offsets for the ZL1 1LE are the same? I know the rims are “1 wider.

ZL1 1LE use 19" rims

And the 6th gen ZL1 rims are a bitch to clean.. a lot easier using 5th gen rims.

Actually the ZLE wheels are harder to clean than the ZL1. Smaller spaces between spokes on the ZLE.

I was dead set on buying set of forged wheels, but after car got here I really like the factory wheel!

The stock ZL1 rims are great, and were a pain to clean until I bought these:thumb:

Exactly... but the best one is the Adams Brush. Cleans the ZL1 wheels very fast. ZLE not as easy

I use a combination of these three tools and I don't find cleaning the wheels to be intensive at all. Get a bottle of Hydro2 or Gyeon Wetcoat while you're at it. That'll easily keep them sealed and a cinch to clean.

Agree 100%...however, I have been looking around to find something to replace them and so far have found nothing that looks better...IMHO :thumbsup:

Everyone has their opinion.

Don't take this personal, but in my view, the 6 gen ZL1 OEM wheels are almost as ugly as the 2012 & 2013 Boss 302 OEM wheels.

^you’re right about that.

Generally speaking I find OEM wheels awful on most cars and trucks irregardless of make but, I think the OEM ZL1 wheels are an absolute homerun!
