C6Z wheels on a C5
Hello folks,
I've been away from the forum for some time and have recently purchased a 99 NB MN6 w/ 47miles on the clock.
So I'm back in the saddle again.
The car currently has the stock wagon wheels and I will soon be replacing them. Is anyone running the stock C6Z setup on their C5 Coupe?
If so, can you chime in and tell me the pros/cons and post pics if you have any? There is a fellow selling a set of them at a decent price and wanted some inputs prior to moving forward.
Thanks,
cat

They will stick out bout an inch. 
Your car will always be a 4X4, since you can't lower it (cause the tires stick out)!
Solve this problem by buying proper sized wheels/tires.
