Default Rim Size Question
Recently purchased a 33K mile, all original C5. Loving the car. Question for you experts out there. Are the rims on the C5 Z06 bigger (width & dia) than those on the standard C5? They look to fill the wheel wells better than my stock wheel and tire setup. Just Curious. Thanks all,

Coach P

The Z wheels are 1" wider, tires 20mm wider front and back. The wheels are the same diameter, and due to the aspect ratios, the tires are basically the same diameter.
