ZLE daily wheels & track wheels

What’s everyone running on their ZL1 1LE for their daily wheels and their track wheels? I just picked up a used ZLE about 2 months ago & it came with two sets of wheels. I have some replica wheels wrapped in PS4s that I’m currently using for my daily wheels (car is not a daily driver) and I have a set of factory wheels wrapped in GY that I plan to use on the track. I don’t plan on getting serious about tracking & plan on tracking here and there. I’m tying to decide if I want to get some different wheels for the track & use the factory wheels for street driving. Or get some different wheels for street driving to change up the look some & leave the factories for the track. Or just keep my current setup that I have

I don't have a 1LE yet but I track my BMW's and APEX are the wheels I use. They now offer setups for the ZL1's. Beyond affordable, quality built.

I have a spare set of SS 1LE wheels that I plan to run. I bought them to have a backup set when I had my SS1LE so might as well use them.

I was impatient and went ahead a got another a full set of OEM rims and TPMS. Put OEM Size Pilot Sport 4s on for daily. No more fear of getting caught in the rain, or having to pay attention when the tires are cold.

Where did you get the OEM set from, if I might ask? (Same boat for me. Want a rain option for the track... but also something to run some PS4's on in the fall/winter)

MRR M716 (19x11R 10.5F) + 285/35 PS 4S all around.


After seeing 275 on 19x10, you can easily put 285 or even 295 on them for straight sidewall ( less stretch looking).

EXACTLY what I did. Had the wheels before I got the car.

Please post pics of your ZLE with those 1LE wheels mounted when you have a chance. I’m trying to decide if I should buy the 14/15 Z28 rims or the 1LE rims to mount on my ZL1 1LE. It’s seriously a tough decision for me.
And both I’ve got quotes for and both are about the same price with the same brand of rubber.

OP for “here and there track” I would use the same set on daily and track. If you want to optimize for daily and couple of track days use ps4, if you want to do some daily and 4-6 track days use the 3s (not 3rs). Obviously u already have 3rs so u could use them till they are gone too. ...

I keep my factory wheels for street driving and bought a 2nd set of BCforged 18" wheels for track use. Went down 1 size with the track wheels to get rid of more weight and to make tire options more plentiful.
