C6 Wheels on a C5
I have a C5 with the stock wheels. I have someone selling me a set of 2008 C6 chrome wheels for a really good price. Does anyone knows if they will fit the C5 Corvette. Thank you.

I'm trying to find the same thing out... I have a 99 and there's a company that is selling a set wheels that are deep dish c-6 copies. I think the stock wheel's are 8.5 and the others are 9.5. I heard it can make the tires look funny if I do that then I was told are a tire place thats not always true.
Please help....pics would be great..........

Go to tire rack and look at the specs of your tires.
I was ready to pull the trigger a few weeks ago but learned that my General Exclaims that I have on the stock 8.5 wide wagon wheels will not fit on a 9.5 wide rim.
On the same note though there are tires out there that will go from the 8.5 to 9.5 with no issues.
I was just bummed out that the max width for stock exclaim size was 9.0
So now I have to save up some cash for tires on top of rims
Have a good one
