Default c7 wheels on c5?

I kinda tried to search but figured I would just ask and see if anyone knows if the c7 wheels would fit on 04 z06 with no problems. And if yes if anyone knows what size tires would work best with said wheels and if anyone has pics of said wheels on c5

So with millions of retail wheels out there....only this set has your eyes? Well if buying a 2014 is your wish, you can't go wrong one piece at a time. Johnny Cash had a song about that.

I can tell you the tires are the same size as the c6. And from what I hear, the offset is the same also. Do a search on "wheel offset c7" and you should find topics within the forum.
C7 Corvette / Stingray Stock Wheel Specs
C7 Corvette / Stingray Wheel Sizes

•Front: 18-inch x 8.5-inch (Stingray) - Rear: 19-inch x 10-inch (Stingray)
•Front: 19-inch x 8.5-inch (with Z51) - Rear: 20-inch x 10-inch (with Z51)

Michelin Pilot Super Sport run-flat Tires

•Front: P245/40R18 (Stingray) - Rear: P285/35R19 (Stingray)
•Front: P245/35R19(with Z51) - Rear: P285/30R20(with Z51)

Sooooo helpful.... You seem to have C6 style wheels on your C5.

After a quick search it would seem that the c7 offsets and sizes will work on a C5. I'm sure replicas will come along soon if you can't find a OEM set for a fair price.

yeah I like my c6 z06 wheels but just would like a second set change up the look sometimes. What I'd really like is the wheels like Toque has but damn they are spendy
