Default tires/rims
I found a set of rims from a 2007 corvette with a brand new set of goodyear eagle runflats already mounted complete with the valve stem sensors.I own a 2002 corvette coupe,will these rims/tires fit?The guy only wants $1200.00 for them and they are perfect.Please help!

The rear rims will also be slightly too far inward. They will fit, but most folks here run wheel spacers to make them sit flush. Indy

2005 sensors will not work either. He needs to use 2001-2004 sensors.
