Default New Wheels

Well i have read everything and looked up everything i can on wheels for my C4. I am very interested in these wheels.

http://www.corvetteguys.com/c6-corve...wheel-pkg.html

I know that it states that it is for c5 and c6 corvettes but by looking at all the specs i dont see any reason that they will not fit on my c4.

The standard offset for a c4 is 56mm and that is what the front wheels are in the site above. They have a 65mm offset on the back but the difference is so minimal that i don't see an issue.

Can any one here tell me why these will not work. What am i missing?

i am on the fence right now on those. Still like the others better. I think that the problem is the 2" lip that is on the wheel. With the offset i think that this would put them outside the fender.
