Absolutely, unless you live in Texas.

Might consider C6Z06 shocks new can be had for a few hundred bux. bolt right on no issues... (might also do the metal sway bar end links off a C6Z as well while in there for another couple bucks if you have the stock plastic links)

C6Z shocks (ALL 4) $234

Metal End links: $110 all 4

C6 ZO6 Shocks!!

100% On the mark and FAR better choice for a shock up grade. Significantly improves the cars maneuverability and responsiveness in high speed driving and turns. Less than the C5 Z shocks and better performance!

You will Not regret the upgrade. YES, Also change the end links to metal.

Contact Gene Culley: He always has sales on the shocks and C6 springs and sway bars that also fit your C5.

Thank you for the referral. I would recommend the C6 Z06 shocks and you can order them on our site with the C6 Z51 sway bars. Check out my forum thread below on them.
