Default Tire Tech??

I have an 85 Vette and I want to get rid of the factory tires/wheels and I would like to know what other year Corvette rims would fit my car. Ideally I would like to get wider rims for the car. Any one who is in the same boat or has experimented, please post or pm me.

Thanks,
Karl

Tire rack and discount tire are good venues to see what fits, off sets, and how to go up to a 16, 17 and 18 inch wheels. You can even put them on your car to see what they will look like on their sites.
