Just wondering if it is possible to go from a 98 corvette 17 and 18 inch rim to a 18 19 inch off of a 2008 corvette.
Help Please

the offsets will be off and you will need some spacers
You may however buy aftermarket in correct offsets to fit your C5 in the 18/19 combo

Lots of choices in the 18/19 combo.

Technically, the fronts are fine- rears you need 1/2" to sit the same, but many run 1" adapters so they don't have to change out studs to longer, as 1/2" is only a spacer- 1" has new studs on it. Can get them off that big auction site for about $60 for the pair.
