Default Looking for info on wheels

Just purchased a 2004 coupe, full option six speed with 12,000 original miles, yellow with gray interior. Car still has the original Goodyears mounted. Being old school NCRS, looking to take off and store wheels and tires. Been looking at tons of wheels. Actually found a factory C6 wheel different from the rest I have seen. Polished AL with clear coat but it is a very slender 15 spoke wheel instead of the normal five. Takes small, round center cap.
My question is will a factory stock C6 wheel, 18" and 19" bolt up with no problems on a C5?
Thank you kindly.
Chas

If it's not a wide body C6 then the wheels will fit fine. If you want the rears to fit more flush you'll need a spacer. The offsets between to C5/6 are a bit different. The wide body C6 has a 12" rear wheel.
