Has anyone bought a second set of wheels for there Z28? I started racing the car and all I can say is I’m hooked! Now I’m looking for a second set of rims I can put racing tires on and swap the rims and tires before each race. My wife and I still like our Sunday cruises but street tires have no place on the track. Please help with ideas of where to get some rims. Thanks

I have seen some Z28s auto crossing with forgestar f14 super deep concave all around. Looked really phenomenal.

I bought the Forgeline 18x11's that 21st CMC was selling on here. Rears fit great, but I'll have to do a little grinding like John did to get the fronts to fit. If you are planning on tracking, 18's are the way to go... cheap take-off tires are plentiful as 18's are common in racing, as opposed to the super expensive 19's that nobody races with.

How much are you willing to spend? Forgeline wheels will run you $4k.

Curious, have any of you ever seen a Z/28 on CCW Classics, or even a ZL1 for that matter? I had some on my 2004 Terminator Cobra and they looked great on it but idk if they'd look good on my Z/28.

Get a set of OEM wheels and you're all set. Plenty for sale around here on the forum usually.

I would agree with Z/28 Dan, it may be your most inexpensive option considering the unique offsets compared to the offsets of a normal Camaro.

I currently have Signature SV501's in Z/28 offsets.

I had a set of Forgeline GS1R's new in the box and with tires your looking to spend around $6500ish or more.

Kansasguy may still have his Forgelines forsale if you are interested in Forgelines. They are the ultimate wheel and will surely do the job.
