So I can't tell from your pictures if they rub..... and can you see the offset stamped on the back? GM Parts Guy shows them to be +51 front and rear.

Edit: sorry, didn't see Sean's post when I started my reply.

All that trouble to post pictures and not a single word typed to help us?

Thanks for taking all the photos!! It appears that the wheels do it without hitting anything or am I missing something ?

I prefer American made just as much as the next guy but in most cases it's just not cost effective anymore, because us Americans demand higher pay for simple jobs, example: the rising push for $15/hr minimum wage. It's just simple economics, no matter how much we hate it.

Here's a White Paper outlining some of the issues with aluminum wheel Chinese production;
https://link.springer.com/article/10...no-access=true

Defects in automotive aluminum alloy casting continue to challenge metallurgists and production engineers as greater emphasis is placed on product quality and production cost. A range of casting-related defects found in low-pressure die-cast aluminum wheels were examined metallographically in samples taken from several industrial wheel-casting facilities. The defects examined include macro- and micro- porosity, entrained oxide fi lms, and exogenous oxide inclusions. Particular emphasis is placed on the impact of these defects with respect to the three main casting-related criteria by which automotive wheel quality are judged: wheel cosmetics, air-tightness, and wheel mechanical performance.

I've never seen any issues with the former U.S. Wheel manufactures. Cost cutting is causing the root of the problem.

Take a pic of the PN and the size / offset on the inside of the wheel, please. Thanks much ahead of time.

I really hope I'm wrong on the one.....

You are. Dicastal is the manufacturer of the wheel. We already went through this when then SS 1LE came out.
*edit* lmcgrew79 already posted the manufacturer name.

[Tachitup]

can someone please post the actual ZL1 1LE wheel offsets that are stamped on the back of the wheels. And enough with how wheels were, are or should be produced.

[RUQWIKR]

These are going to stick out big time up front, like the 14 / 15 Z28's up front, even on the ZL1's with bigger fenders! Bet my 11mm OS info is probably correct.

For the love of Christ post the offsets

I'll wager one US or Canadian penny I am correct on what I posted earlier:

I'm pretty sure they are:
19x11 11mm OS front (same as 14/15 Z28 front)
19x12 41mm OS rear


Get the popcorn! Somebody with confirm so I can see if I make or lose a penny.
