Default Z06 wheels on a coupe? Quick Question.

I'm thinking of buying a set of OEM Z06 wheels to put on my '99 coupe. They'll fit just fine, right? Or will they stick out a little past the bodywork? Any pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much!

There is no difference in the bodywork or suspension between a C5 and Z06 as far as wheel fitment is concerned. They will fit your coupe perfectly.

They fit fine on my 02. Come out just about even with the outside of the body. I have the Goodyear F1s on, very quiet.

I had the Z06 size wheels on my car for a while. They fit perfect and did not stick out of the fender wells. Go for it, you'll like them.
