Will these wheels work with a big brake kit?
Greetings from Ontario, I hope this is the correct place to post this question?
I need confirmation that 17/18" C6 Z06 wheels for a C5 will clear a big brake kit I plan to install?
If not, is there a practical way to make them fit or should I look for an off the shelf solution that works?
I like the look of the Z06 wheel from the C6, and I like the big brake look, can I have both without risking safety?
Thanks for your help,
Mike

If you want C6 ZO6 "style" wheels look at Ace Alloy "Slick" wheels. They are made for C5's with C6 ZO6 calipers.
They are not identical to the C6 ZO6 wheel but close.They look good and are very affordable.

If the "big brake " kit is C6 ZO6 or Grand Sport, 17" aftermarket C6 ZO6 style wheels won't clear the front calipers.
