why not just bolt them on and see?
the factory c6z wheels fit a c5z but they will stick out just a little from the fender.it really depend on the offset/backspace.an 11" wheel will fit in the fenders of the c5 without rubbing inside or sticking out if you have the correct offset.i have the 17x11 c4 wheels on mine and they stick out just a bit

did you happen to get any shots directly from the back?... did you try the fronts as well?... I'm curious how far they poked out... reason I ask is because weld sucks and doesn't seem interested in putting effort into making their wheels for a c5 with c6z brakes, I have tried numerous times with no luck... now if the c6z setup would work then that would make things easier
