Wheel Size Question
Has anyone ever put 17"s all around on their C5? I think they might look small but I found someone who would trade me their 17" z06 wheels for my c5 y2ks. Any input?

Well could anyone tell me the specs on stock wheels? Like the dimensions, backspacing, etc?
I'm kinda wondering if I can run some 18x9.5"s all around from a camaro without any problems...

I have chrome ZO6 wheels 18x9.5 all around
Frount +64 offset 265 35 18
back +56 offset 275 40 18
A +64 in the back is stock, a +56 works to.
No rubing or sticking out.
Look at the link >>>>> http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp
I will have some pics this week.
17s all over will look kinda small,

17s in the back other than on a race track would not look good.

While You Are On The Subject Of Changing Wheels Sizing, How Does One Tell The Cars Computer So The Speedo And Other Components Know How To Perform. Im Going From C5 To C6 Rims.
