Yeah ZL1_Tommy. He's stated he has run 17" Welds in lots of other threads asking the same thing. Not sure on the model or if there's a technicality to getting them to fit. He'll probably get a PM here or DM on Instagram...

In my last chat with him (couple months ago) he was going 20 x 9 up front. Never heard how 17 went on the rears.

I tried my 18" Welds on the rear and they barely fit. I'll check back in with him and see how they are doing.

EDIT: he sold the welds and went a different route. 18x12 and 19x10

Is that a camera effect or is there some amazing paint/wrap work going on with the black/blue two tone? That black/blue perl is my favorite.

I fiend a dealer that’s local. He has a set of forgelines in 17x11 and I’m test fitting them today hopefully. They are much cheaper than the welds but don’t look as good imo

Oh my this looks good. Are you on a set of stock springs? I lowered mine a tad so I’m worried about fitting a 28” tire.

I tried a 305/45-18 28.8" tire on my non-lowered Z and it was definitely a no go.
