Wheel Fitment
So I am wondering if the factory wheels from a base C6 will fit a base C7?
I have been finding wheels that I like (both factory and not) that say they fit C6's. I have noticed that the sizes seem to be the same (18x8.5x56 and 19x10x79) so that has me wondering if they will fit.
I just found wheels that look like this and are the sizes I referenced above. I like them enough to ask the question even though I am sure someone will say "why would you want to put C6 wheels on your C7"
Thanks,

Offsets are comparable but C7 calipers are thicker. Some C6 wheels will clear, others will require using a small spacer and E.T. lugnuts.

Hmmn, well I think I'll look for wheels that will definitely fit and not take a chance on maybe they will, maybe they won't It seems most of the wheels I have found are sold as is, no returns, etc, etc, so I won't take the chance. Thanks for the info about the brake calipers. I had not considered them.
