C7 Z51 19/20" wheels on my C6
I just installed some C7 Z51 19/20" replica wheels on my C6. I purchased black wheels but had them powdercoated black immediately because of all the issues with the OEM wheels having such bad chipping issues.
Here are some pictures from my Labor Day weekend road trip from Newport Beach to Monterey, then down the PCH back home.
This is right after the install.
Lowered on WCC bolts and 1/4" spacers.... I love the stance!

I am selling my stock wheels and tires for local pickup in Newport Beach, $1800. The wheels are C7 Z51 19/20" replica which OEM offsets which are the same as our C6 OEM wheels. The wheel width for the 19/20" is the same as the C6 OEM wheels thus the same width tire size was utilized with a thinner sidewall. I went on Tirerack.com and looked up tires for a 2014 Corvette and went with the OEM tire size but chose Hankook V12's as a set was $600 shipped! The wheels look amazing and I'm falling in love with my old 2005 once again.

No rubbing at all since the wheels are the same width and offset as our OEM C6 wheel specs. Even with the wheel spacers I have no issues.
FYI call Bob at Houseofwheels.com. The wheels were $1100 shipped

I wasn't able to weight the C7 wheel/tire combo and compare it to my existing gumbys but I can't tell a difference. I have full bolt on mods and I'm sure the minor weight difference is negligible for performance reasons. I also can't tell a difference with firmness since the tire sidewall is smiler. The rolling diameter is the same as my gumbys, the speedometer is still dead on to my GPS radar detector.
