C7 fronts should fit front and back with no issues on a 88-96. I believe the non z51 C7 front rims are 18x8.5 with 56mm offset. Only downside is losing an inch on the back tire as stock C4's are 17x9.5 with 54mm offset on the rear.

19s with 285s in the front and 20s with 335s in the back! I had to try a few different options in the back because the wheel was so wide. I went with a hub-centric 1.5 inch spacer in back because these tires are too costly to dig ridges in. Michelins are over 500 a piece. Pokes a lil but holds the hell out of the road now

If you put spacers behind the wheels , you still end up with enough stud thread left ? How does that happen, even assuming shoulder bolts that fit through the wheels? Sorry for the questions, I just can’t visualize it.

I found out the words "spacer" and "adapter" differ. Its actually an adapter that has the same studs. I went to https://www.titanwheelaccessories.co...-wheel-spacers. It has to be hubcentric tho!

hi Shawn... thank you for your service.... Of all the posts I've seen... yours is the closest setup to what I'm dealing with. I've found a beautiful set of C7 Z06 Factory Rims... I think you are actually running that setup. I'm so nervous about getting these wheels and being able to fit them. Can you please if you don't mind share exact setup? I think some have said 1.5" hubcentric wheel adaptors are mandatory for rear... and maybe 1" for front? If you did get them... and are running that way... any issues you could share? I'm just a guy that gives the 92 convertible I have a little blast here and there getting up to speed limit... not anything crazy... the Rims have 3 year old brand new rubber on them... I have the specs if you care to give feedback... THANK YOU so much for your time... I absolutely love your setup... THAT's what I want!!! Chris Kontos
