Tire wheel fitment
I hear through the forum that the stock C5 tire sizes are almost non existent. Will the 18” rear fit on the front. I have 295 on the rear
forgot the wheels are a stock off set

Only the oem 265/40/17 size is hard to find. 255/40 or 275/40's are plentiful. Have you not read the many threads on this subject that have been posted, this month?
Yes, an oem Z06 18x10.5 rear wheel will bolt on the front but because of its width and offset, it will poke.

If you are talking about a Z06, then yes, matching brand tire sizes are hard to find but if you are talking "stock C5" sizes, there are lots for the coupe and convertible.

Stock sizes, 245/45x17 front and 275/40x18 rears are freely available. Z06 sizes not so much. Like many others, I went 18/19 using stock C6 sizes - also freely available.
