I recently bought my C5Z and have 275 front tires. I noticed im getting a decent amount of rock chips ans debris behind the front tires. Im torn between two right now, but am open to other options.
Im looking at the RPI designs C6Z style ones, as well as the Rockblokz mud flap style. I like the rockblokz style but they look like they might hang almost too low. However the car in their images look like they might be lowered so its hard to tell.

Any help is appreciated
Am thinking the way i see it.. you could take an exacto knife or box cutter and trim them to your requirement
I adapted a set of c6 car on rock guards to my car. Turned out pretty well.
Here's some quick and dirty night pics
Got them from extremeonlinestore.com
It looks like they may now make some of these for the C5 specifically but I remember when I got mine, they were a c6 part. Either way they'll work with the c5

Can I ask how wide they are? My worry is that they arent wide enough go accommodate my 275 fronts.
I was slightly worried with them being plastic as opposed to thr rockblokz stainless steel. But its hard to see since there is so little info
I went Rockblokz. They are the only way you will stop stones.
Mine don’t scrape and you can move the front ones around a bit or trim if needed. They blend in with the tires well to.
The front and back are no drill and the rear have support brackets.
The C6 trim is just frosting and you will still see rocker damage,
I also went with Rockblokz, for our C5 convertible. They are easily trimmed with a pair of scissors--the left rear was a too close to my muffler, so I cut it to fit better.
So, easy to install--NO DRILLING. Stops that dirt rooster tail on the fender driving in the rain, yes, I drove the Corvette in the rain! I couldn't help it, I took my A.I. Android Woman on a Route 66 Roadtrip from Los Angeles to Mississippi and Back!
These Rockblokz and a Colgan Bra made gas station cleaning a breeze and No Fear of rocks, dirt, or driving too close behind slow pokes. I'm even thinking of moving to a dirt road access house!
If you're interested in the A.I. Android Woman Route 66 Roadtrip here is the first stop 😃
I put new clear plastic film on before I installed the Rockblokz. I had PPF alone for years and rocks and dirt got on them a lot. The Rockblokz keeps the grime and dirt away.

When I had my C5s, I ran a set of the stealth splash guards from RPI Designs. Provided good coverage, looked good and the price was very reasonable. Not sure if they still sell that product, but perhaps worth looking into it.
