The ZR1 offset 17x11 is not a great fit on the 88+ C4, sticks way out of the fenders, the 96' Grand Sport 17x11 offset works much better. Are you certain they are ZR1 and not GS wheels? Offset should be listed on the back, or just measure the backspacing. :thumbup: The term "ZR1" wheel became almost generic for this C4 5 spoke wheel, but most of the ones out there are actually GS replicas.

The tires probably have a few days of racing left in them. It's hard for me to tell for sure.

After measuring, the wheels may indeed be GS wheels. I was told they were ZR1's by the person who gave them to me. The offset is 50mm and the backspacing is 7.9" - Here is a website with more info:http://www.joby.se/corvette/div/corvette_wheels/
