Default C5 wheels on a C4?

Will C5 wheels and tires fit on a C4 without issues?
Thanks

I have zo6 wheels in the stock sizes for c5(race) and c6(street) on my 92. I do believe spacers are required for 88 and earlier.

You are correct, only the 84-87 will need spacers. I had Z06 wheels and tires on my 94 and they were a perfect fit.

Any idea where spacers can be gotten?

I put my 18x10.5 repro Z06 wheels with 295/35-18s on my dad's 93. They fit.

I've seen some on eBay, but dont know about their quality. You can try http://www.vbandp.com. I know they make them and I think you get a 10% forum discount. And here is a pic of my '94 with Z06 wheels:
