THE DFW Weekly GTG : North Dallas, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Richardson, + Area #24

Ok ive been searching the wheel tire threads and cant find a quick easy answer. Im looking at a set of c6 rims and tires not the ZO6 but just regular rims the 18X 8.5 front and 19X10 rears I have been able to figure out Ill be fine on the front but the rear has a 285 tire on it and Im trying to figure out if I will need a small spacer or not. Any one here know for sure? The price is good and they have good tread and Ill put my new TPS sensors in them. Just not a big spacer fan.

I think I heard that the front is ok on a C5, but the rear you will need a spacer.
Not sure how much of a spacer.

My F14's have the C6 offset's.. 18x9.5 up front 18x12.5 in the back. Of course mine has the flared fenders but you get the idea. NO spacers. I do however have a pair of spacers from my former wheels (HRE 19x12.5)... they are just laying in my tool box... you can have em if you like.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I'm off to south Texas tomorrow morning hopefully to help my oldest grandson get his deer.
