Default 1995 rims on my 90

Simple question, could I put 1995 corvette rims on my 1990? Thanks!

YES! They will fit right with the good offset but those 95's rims if not Z07 will be 8.5 front's and 9.5 rear's width...

They did not come off a Z07. But I could just throw them on my 90 and call it good? Thanks.

That would be a direct bolt-on. Weird, me saying that

No problem whatsoever but if you put 275/40/17 instead of 245/45/17on the front 8.5 wheels they will look a bit big on the shoulders but still o.k.

No fitment issues unless they are off a ZR-1. if so the rear wheels 11X17s with a 33MM offset will poke outside of the rear fenders. Assuming these oare just off of a normal C4 then no issues.

There's a charcoal 90 running around Decatur that sawblades on it and it looks sweet despite the Vette looks a little worn around the edges. 17x8.5 fronts and 17x9.5 rears.

And the factory size tires for those wheels would be:

255/45/17 - Front
285/40/17 - Rea

You can run 245/45/17 up front and 275/40/17 out back, but I strongly prefer the 255/285 combo because it is a bit taller tire and will fill the wheel well more nicely. But either is good really.

BTW... On 1988 I am currently running 1991 Sawblades (17x9.5 all around with 285/40/17s all around) and fits like a glove!
