c5 wheels
Hello Everyone,
I wanted to see if anyone knows if c5 thin spoke wheels will fit on my 95 vette? Found sum with new front tires and will have to buy tires for rears. Question is will these fit?

They will fit fine without any spacers. I put some '97-'99 wagon wheels on to try them. The thinspokes are the same sizes with the same offsets.
I didn't like them because the 17" front and 18" rear with stock C5 tire sizes made the car feel too high in back. I also had the stock C5 Goodyear run flats on them and they are very stiff so I didn't like the ride either.
I went back to C4 wheels.
With the right tire sizes, the thinspokes might look good without the drawbacks I had.
