C4 wheel sizes and what will work.
I have a C4 vette and I like wheels with the deep look. But I no idea what sizes I can stuff under the car. Here is an example of a wheel that I like.

I hope it's OK to ask a question here, but I have an 88 with the razor style 16 x 8.5 inch rims and I can't get the correct size tyres for them. I'd like to change to the later 93 model 17 x 9.5 inch rims but the offset is slightly different. Is a quarter inch difference in the offset together with being an inch wider a big deal?

Might consider going to 18x8.5, easier to make the circumference closer or exactly the same as current, keeps the speedo correct.
Can play with finding the right tire size via a tire calculator, such as https://tiresize.com/calculator/ .

If you know what you have and what you might like to go with, here's another calculator that may be of value: https://www.wheel-size.com/calc/
This was one I used last winter with my upgrade. I was able to nail down what fit and what didn't and I was well pleased with the results.
