My boss just got a set of Z-06 wheels and tires for his 05 Vette.
He is offering me a good deal on his old ones.
Is there any way to make them work on My C3 Vette?
The bolt pattern is the same, but you will need 2.5" adapters at each wheel to make up for the difference in back spacing.
Also, you MAY have to have the E-brake cable bracket cut off and re-welded higher on the trailing arm if it interferes with the rim...but not everyone has that problem.
I'm putting C6 wheels on mine. I think the Z06 rims are wider than the standard 18 x 8.5 front/19 x 10 rears. I went with offset TA's to clear the rears and 2.5" spacers.
Personally I think the C5 wheels look better than the C6 wheels on a C3. Someone on this forum has a set on theirs and they look damn good, and this is coming from a guy who pretty much hates everything but the rally wheels on a C3.
See which ones you like better - you might want to see about trading those C6 wheels for a set of C5's instead.
