i sent these to Erik(jaquess) for his l5 fender flares
he had these widened as well to 20 x 12 from the 20 x 10

you can always have your back wheels widened too.

these are MRR GT5

19 x 8.5 and 19 x 9.5 or 19 x 8.5 or 9.5 and 20 x 10


19/19 combo is 1099.99 shipped
19/20 combo is 1149.99 shipped

i dont know how much he paid to have them widened i wanna say like 150 per wheel

Yea I've seen yours ....

i was initially going to have Richey do it. Since then I blew a turbo so paint got put off. Now Tom and I are going to attempt shooting the base clear and see what we get. If all else fails, Richey will still end up with it. If we succeed in this, I will see how an entire repaint will play into scheduling

Those are nice. Really trying to exhaust my 18" option first. Might however let you know in the future about them.

Well Chris and Karen sure can do it, they did my whole car. If you need to do some measurements, you welcome to do so on mine.

I could use the gap from top of fender to body on the front, by the door, as well as the rear, by the trunk lid if you get a chance.

Thanks!!!!

House of wheels 18x12 c6 z06 wheels will work. I run these with my L-5 flares. No spacer either. I had to run a spacer in front because of the Big Brakes... I hope that helps

I can tell you that the ZO6 offset that CCW uses for there 505 does not work on a C5.. When we did a buddies Zo6 c6 clutch, I took his 19 x 12.5 CCW 505 and put it on my car and they sat in about 3/4 of an inch and were flush against the wheel well. So i can assume with 90% confidence that it will not work. It will sit to far in because the ZO6 panels are about 1.25 inches wide then the standard C6 panels.


As far as the measurement, I see what i can do tomorrow.

Front wheel offsets are pretty close between both generations, no matter there.

But an offset value means nothing without knowing the width of the wheel.

If you want a 12" wheel ideally offset for a 2" flared C5 quarter panel, think 45-50mm.
The OE 19x12" C6Z rear wheel is 59mm offset, and needs a spacer to fill out a widened C5.
