Can I put the 17" front rims on the rear? I need to do ET streets and I guess are only in 17's. Is the offset different using the front rims on the rear?


Thank you,

Ted

I see that you have a C6. I don't know if they will fit Z51 C6, but they will certainly be okay on a regular C6 or C5. BTW, I will soon have four 17" C5 thin-spokes for sale - PM me if you are interested.

If you want a wider 17 incher, factory ZR-1 wheels are also an option.

I'm run a set on my 97 vette. They are the Y2k 5 spoke wheels 17x9.5 but I order them with the C4 off set becuase I'm running 335/35/17 drag sticks on them. They stick out pass the body a little but gives a little clearence on the inside.
