Default C7 Z51 Wheels/Tires on C6 Z51

Wondering if I can install C7 Z51 wheels and tires on my C6 Z51. I know that I would go from 18/19 to 19/20 wheels. Two Questions for anyone who can advise. 1) Is the circumference of the two close enough not to cause Traction control, ABS issues? 2) Will the TPMS sensors from the C7 wheels be recognized by the C6? Thanks in advance for any insight.

Wheels and tires will work fine.

The TPMS won't work.....you'll need to use C6 sensors in the new wheels.

Did this to my 2006 w/z51. No problems at all. Like Rick said, you'll need to use the tpms sensors for the year of car that the wheels are going on. Also note that the 2006 year sensors will fit the C7 wheels. Had a vendor here tell me that he didn't think the sensors would fit the newer c7 wheels.
