Default C6 Z06 wheels

Will these fit a C5 coupe without rubbing?

I guess the only way the rears wouldn't rub is if you only drive in a straight line. Other than that the rears will rub and I say mini tub will do the fix.

not like its causing damage but who cares about some marks that nobody would even see

Do they use spacers for these on the wide body?

Those dont look like OE C6 Z06 wheels at all. The style maybe, but not the same sizes.

"Fit" yes

Fit properly? No. The rears stick out.

There’s something about a rear sticking out.

Here's what I decided to do. I am buying a set of C5 Z06 wheels and having them powder coated a complimentary color to my car.

I hope your Vette is white. I personally think white with white wheels would look phenomenal. I have yet to see one though…

I had a ‘80 T/A Indy Pace Car BITD (no pics handy unfortunately) and I also bought a ‘98 Mustang GT convertible a couple years back to ’flip’ and I was finally able to do the white on white which I always wanted to do.
