ZLE square wheel and tire setup

Hello, I intend to track my future ZL1 1LE regularly and would like to save the OEM wheels and the r-compound tires for just that. I'd like to have a second set of wheels and tires for the street that have decent grip but are in a "square" configuration so I can rotate the tires. I'm thinking 305's in all four corners. Has anyone tried this? I'm thinking it's doable but might need some spacers in the rear. thanks

its doable, the GT4 cars run this square set up on 18' wheels.
What I would do is 315 square ...that can be achieved by some negative camber upfront.

Yes this can be done in 305 or 315, contact BC Forged. They already specd this out for me in an 18" wheel but I assume you want 19s. To have identical wheels on all 4 corners you'll need to run a fairly big spacer up front to clear the big brakes, but it should work fine.

Here's 19x10


15 and 19mm offset.


Can easily go with 15mm all around for easy rotation., add hubcentric spacer and longer studs, which is prob what I should have done.



Can easily take 295's since 275 leave lip of wheel "sticking" out a bit. Prefer bit more tire to protect wheel .. ie parking and less "stretch" look.
