I like 17" all the way around just my option. Maybe 18" in the rear I think if you go too big your car ends up looking like a Hot Wheels car. But in the end do what ever you like because you have to look at it everyday.

I honestly don't know because to me 17s or 18s are gonna look tiny because i have been used to looking at 20s lol. I still don't know what was going through the guy's head that bought the rims and put them on my car before I bought it.

zr1 covette rims are all 17's but im fairly certain they come staggered. You may have to look at tirerack or something for rims bc the most of the vette rims will be staggered. Just make sure to figure out wheel offset and get a rim that will maybe be a lil more positive offset compared to stock. You can also always get a set of 1/2 in. wheel spacers for the back to give you a more exressive stance and still be able to keep the same size tire all the way around.

Hey Im in the same situation as you only the car I bought doesnt have 20" rims haha. I've got a 97 Z28. But yeah what im going to do is buy 17" in the front and 18" in the back. I just need to know how wide I should go with my tires. Also i know a guy who rolled his fenders so his tires would fit in the wheel whell and not rub and it looked pretty sick. heres a link to a site with really good deals on rims if your interested
