2016 Corvette Z06 on WELD Solana 18x10 Front and 18x12 Rear Beadlock Wheels

The 2016 Corvette Z06 is already one of the most capable performance cars in the C7 lineup, but the right wheel and tire setup can take the car’s stance, traction, and overall appearance to another level. With wide body lines, serious factory power, and available carbon ceramic brakes, the Z06 needs a wheel package that looks the part and supports the performance of the car.

Our customer Frank, known on Instagram as @trauma_5.0, has his 2016 Corvette Z06 with carbon brakes sitting on a serious WELD Solana setup. He is running 18x10 WELD Solana Street wheels up front and 18x12 WELD Solana Beadlock Drag wheels in the rear, paired with Mickey Thompson P345/35R18 ET Street S/S tires.

The result is a clean, aggressive, and functional street/strip setup that looks right at home on a C7 Z06.

This setup gives Frank’s Z06 a wide, planted stance while keeping the overall look clean and performance-focused. The 18x10 front wheels help maintain a balanced street setup, while the 18x12 rear beadlocks and 345/35R18 Mickey Thompson tires give the rear of the car a serious drag-ready profile.

Why Choose the WELD Solana for a C7 Corvette Z06?

1. Wide Corvette Fitment – The 18x10 front and 18x12 rear setup gives the Z06 an aggressive, balanced stance that works perfectly with the widebody C7 platform.
2. Beadlock Rear Wheels – The WELD Solana Beadlock Drag rear wheels add a serious race-inspired look while giving the rear of the car a much more purposeful appearance.
3. 345/35R18 Rear Tire Package – The Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S rear tires give the Z06 a wide, traction-focused setup that fits the performance goals of the build.
4. Gloss Black with Milled Spokes – The Solana design in gloss black with milled spokes gives the car a clean, modern, and aggressive look.
5. Carbon Brake Setup – Frank’s Z06 is equipped with carbon brakes, making this a great real-world example where wheel fitment and brake clearance are especially important.

A Serious Street/Strip Setup for the C7 Z06

The C7 Corvette Z06 has no shortage of power or presence, but the right wheels can completely change the way the car sits and looks. Frank’s setup keeps the front of the car wide and balanced while giving the rear a much more aggressive drag-focused stance.

The 18x10 WELD Solana Street wheels up front provide a clean street appearance and help maintain the strong front-end stance of the Z06. Out back, the 18x12 WELD Solana Beadlock Drag wheels paired with 345/35R18 Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S tires create a serious rear setup that fits the personality of the car perfectly.

The gloss black finish with milled spokes works especially well on the C7 Z06, adding contrast and detail without taking away from the car’s factory body lines. Combined with the rear beadlock design, the setup has a purposeful look that makes it clear this Corvette is built for more than just cruising.
