2013 ZL1 Drag Wheel/Tire Advice Needed

Hi everyone. I am sure this topic has been beat to death through the forums but I am hoping someone can give me some quick info to help.

I was planning on ordering a set of Weld Wheels and MT tires from Carlyle Racing but just found out BMR bought them and they don't do wheel/tire packages anymore. So I am planning on spec'ing out my own setup and wanted to know the exact size wheels and tires I should be looking for. Want to run 17's in the rear because I don't have the 15" brake conversion kit yet.

Please let me know your comments if you can.

Thanks in advance,
Andy

Thank You. Do you know the wheel size with backspacing that I need?

Size 17 x 10.5"
Bolt Circle 5 x 120"
Back Space 7
Offset 32

You can go Weld on the high end, Racestar on the low end.

And, if you are unaware, with most 17's you will have to tie back the emergency brake cable and notch the lca's.
