Deep dish
What wheel has the deepest possible dish and still fits a C5 Z06? Depth of the dish matters more than the wheel's diameter. On the diameter side, 18, 19, or 20 will do for the rear. Don't really care, just want the deepest dish (read: baller status) possible.
I realize a deep dish like this is not doable on a Corvette:
.. dig the wheels, BTW, but the FS Rev wheels wouldn't have a deep dish on a 'vette I don't think.

The deepest dish you can go on a C5 is 3". Anything over that and your wheel will start to stick out of the wheel well.
This is a bad picture of my car, but hopefully you can get the point.

What is the offset on your wheels?

I believe I-forged has a rear wheel w/ a 4" lip... but the spokes curve in some.
