Zr1's, the wheels I have on my car can be bought with 11's in the rear. Also, there are many wheels that you can get in a 10.5 and run a 315 tire too. Just find a style you like then see if you can get that size in the rear.

They should come in like 10.5's which a 315/35/17 should fit just fine on. But I'd if I've seen a 17x10.5, I think they might be 18x10.5 in the rear.

After doing a quick search it looks like if you want a 10.5 in the rear you are going to have to have 18's back there. They look like they only come in 17x9.5's and then like 18x9.5, 18x10.5, and so on. You could do 17's in the front and 18's in the rear or 18's all around. I personally would do 18x9.5's in the front and 18x10.5's in the rear.

yea i have that now, but its so hard to fit a 305/35/18 back there, plus the 17s are better for launching

I have never really liked black wheels on black cars but its all about the owners preference. Some of the ZR1s have the polished lips so it does offset the all black theme a little bit. Not sure if you already have the 315 MTs yet or not but those are some seriously wide tires and you might have to do some massaging of the inner fenderwells to keep them from hitting.

They are wider. Alot of guys mod the inside of the fender to get them to fit no problem though. Just takes a big hammer or rolling the inside.
