I have a 99 C5 and someone I know is looking to sell a set of OEM 2006 C6 wheels with the tire pressure sensors and tires. I know you can retrofit the later C5 sensors onto an earlier C5 but what about 06 C6 sensors?
Has anyone done this?
Also, will these wheels with tires bolt right up no problem?
Thanks in advance! I have already received alot of help from all the great C5 people on this side of the forum with my latest ride!

----------------------------------------------------------
8vett7 is correct, I've run them both with and without spacers.
C6 RFA will not work on C5, it communicates with the BCM on a different frequency.
Thanks all, I did a search and confirmed that the C6 wheels will work without a spacer in the front and sometimes with or without a 1/4" spacer in the rear.
Now I also have the answer for the sensors, thanks!
Does anyone know if the early C5 tire pressure sensors mount/work in the C6 rims?
What do you guys think a set of oem 2006 C6 clean rims should sell for?
I'm just trying to figure out if this is worth doing. Thanks.
