The offset of wheels will be close to ZL1 1LE specs.
I'd like to hear from people who have gone down this path or similar and hear about their issues of driving their cars on the street and back roads. How much more careful you have to be and what are some of the typical places where you'd have issues driving your ZL1 with the mentioned set up. Basically want to know how much of a hassle it is to lower it and go down a size on wheels.
Thank you in advance for your input.

Interesting, I didn’t realize going with a smaller wheel and more rubber is less weight or are you going with a smaller diameter tire overall? So the reason for wanting to lower the car is because of the smaller diameter to compensate or just for visual?
