You would have to find a set of 90 ZR1 wheels I believe, I have never seen any after market. Offset? Well you would be stuck with the ZR1 offset and they would probably stick out of the wheel wells some.

I dont know of anyone who makes a 88-90 rim in 17x11 for the rear, you would need to switch to ZR1 rims.

And you would need 50mm offset, like the Grand Sport rear rim, not like the actual ZR1 rim which is 38mm.

Here's one place that came up. They have the 17X11, 12 slots (like stock), not sure of the backspacing ... I would guess it is the ZR-1 backspace (50mm?)

Sorry I checked the link ... 17301D L (17X11 Left) and 17301D R (17X11 Right)

You might do better by going to their main page www.lakeshorewheelandtire.com

The 17x11 wheel on that website would have the stock ZR-1 38mm offset and is specific to the 90 ZR-1. The ZR-1 bodies were 3" wider in the rear and the rear quarter panels covered the larger wheel/tire combo with that offset.

As mentioned, you wil need a 50mm offset for a rear 17x11 wheel to fit your car. The 5-spoke later ZR-1 style and Grand Sport wheel designs are available from a number of sources as new wheels. Try www.afswheels.com for wheel choices. The also sell wheels and wheel/tire combos on eBay. Do a search on eBay for "AFS Wheels" or "Corvette Wheels".
