fitting c5 rims and tires on my 88 c4 corvette
Hello i was wondering if i can fit c5 rims onto my 88 corvette, and would i need any adapters or wheel spacers or will it be a direct fit
I attached images of my corvette and a link to the wheels. My corvette also has a body kit and i was wondering if the wheels will rub on the body of the car, the tires are Nankang 255/45/r17

You might want to ask the seller for more information.
Those wheels are not OEM, so it is unknown what width and offset they are.
If they match the OEM 17" wheels they will fit fine with no spacers and are almost the same offsets as the late C4 wheels.
Good luck.
(specs below. I also included the C5 18" for reference. The C5 18" fit but are a little inboard without spacers.)
88-96 base
17"x 8.5"- 56mm
17"x 9.5"- 56mm (also used for fronts on some models)
C5 base
17"x 8.5"- 56mm
18"x 9.5"- 65mm
C5 Z06
17"x 9.5"- 54mm
18"x 10.5"- 58mm
