I know this goes in wheels and tires forum but I am about to go take a look and want some other people's opinions before I make a purchase like this.

These wheels are 5 minutes from my house and I would like to go look at them. What do you guys think?

Will a 285/35/18 fit on our trucks ok? I know a 275/40/18 does... So these should be the same overall diameter... but what about turning and width?

If I buy these, I want to sell them, keep the tires, and buy black ZR1 wheels from eBay. I love those 5 spoke old school ZR1 wheels. hehe

Tires are $162 each new @ tirerack....

I'd be a little concerned about the tire with 2 plugs in it. I don't know if I'd trust it / want 2 plugs in a tire.

And with the AWD system, I'm not sure I'd want to replace 1 tire in a set that had 30% wear. I know, the difference in diameter is probably trivial, but I don't know if I'd want to do it. But that's just me.

+1. Thats about right for the price though. If you're gonna buy new tires anyway though and different rims, is this really worth it?

Well, its a Discount Tire patch/plug which means its stronger than an area without a hole. (dont ask me how I know). I want them for the tires actually.
+ $500 for new ZR1 wheels
+ $700 for used Z06 wheels and tires
- Z06 wheels $400-$500
- C5 wheels/tires $200-$400 (four 17" and two 18")
New ZR1 rims with used tires will be only a few hundred instead of $1200+

Yup I saw that. Actually even a little cheaper. Then another $600-700 for tires.

Oh well. I didnt buy them. I figured I could save some money for myself and hook up a board member with some cheap chrome Z06 wheels since I would have shipping boxes and all ready to go. Guess thats not in the cards. heh
