As you adjust the top of struts in for max negative camber this leaves wheel clearance on the lower strut area.
Just to eliminate any possible confusion, I'm pretty sure the struts have not been trimmed in this photo. It looks 100% stock, but I think one could trim the strut and gain clearance for negative camber. The upper camber plates may be the better option for adjustment as you wouldn't need to trim anything. Maybe one of you guys that have these wheels on a mag ride car can confirm that please.

ZL1 1LE wheels on ZL1 will they fit?

Finally had the chance to install my new wheel setup. I went with signature wheel SV501 with the same offset as a zl11le. The car is still on the stock alignment specs, and so far no issues with rubbing. It’s definitely cutting it close to the strut assembly. Anything more aggressive you would definitely need a 3-5 mm spacer.
(I’m also lowered on Eibach prokit)

I've also test fitted the Z28 wheel (same size/offset) it will barely, barely fit with a street alignment. If the purpose of doing ZL1 1LE wheels is to look good, should be fine. If your purpose is to track your car, you'll need a 3-5mm spacer minimum if you're going to track align your car, which if you're going to run an R-compound tire and not track align your car...wtf are you doing?

Bump - I saw where you said the offsets are the same as the ZL1 1LE, but I didn't see if you also used the same wheel size as the ZL1 1LE (assuming so based on looks) so to confirm, are those 19x11F and 19x12R?

Have you any complaints/comments about this setup since it's been a few months?

If you had do it over, would you change the offset a bit for more strut clearance vs running a spacer for track alignment specs?

I'm looking at some Forgelines in ZL1 1LE sizes and offsets (maybe a few mm toward the negative side in the front to negate the need for a spacer if changing alignment specs) and am gathering any and all info so I don't make a $6k mistake. I'l also be running the OEM ZL1 1LE tires. I may even consider 10.5" front and 11.5" rear to negate some of the headaches and also so the wheels don't stick out as much, but still perform and look killer.

It’s a tough one for sure. I’m about to attempt 325/30/20 on the rear of the ZL1 in the next few weeks. Just saving up for tires.

Anyone know the measurements on how far out the ZL1 1LE wheel/tires stick out from the rear fender
