C6 wheels on a C3
I have some spare C6 wheels laying around my garage and was wondering, what will it take to make these fit my C3. When I tired bolting the C6 rears on with 3" spacers they still hit the inner wall, and they stuck out my fenders quite a bit. the C6 fronts seemed to fit better, but I do have 245 up front and 295 in the rear.
Also, not certain if I need different threads for different topics? Don't wanna post too many things.
I also have the basic brakes leaking, instead of replacing/rebuilding them which brakes can I upgrade to that will simplify my install, meaning which car can I steal them from that will allow me to have a bolt on experience? From the discs, calipers and master cylinder.
Again, thanks in advance.

The rear 19's might be too big in every way. Consider fitting the front C6 18s on the rear and getting another pair of C6 fronts for the front.
Regarding brakes, I realize it can get expensive, but a good set of Wilwoods (about $500.00 per wheel set = $1000 total) would set you good for many years.
For the master cylinder, a C5 master cylinder fits, but with some custom lines. Search the forums here. There are numerous threads on it.

Look at the Wilwood D8-4s. Do all of them. Also check out Van Steel's one piece rear brake hose (stainless) that goes with these.
