ZO6 wheels on a 2000 vert
Has any one put ZO6 wheels on their C5 and can sensors be put on the ZO6 wheels? :cheers:

I did it: 2002 Z06 rims on a ´98 coupe with ´98 sensors. As the sensors changed with the rims in 2000 or 2001 ???, the sensors did not fit to the rim. I did not have bigger O-rings, the dealer did not have time, so we mounted them without sensors.
Ride and look is great, no disadvantages!

Thanks for the post. Really like the chrome wheels and the 10.5 width but would really like to keep the sensors if possible. Do you think that o-rings would have worked or are there other issues?

I have chromed Z06 wheels on my '99 coupe in 17 x 9.5 and 18 x 10.5 sizes with the sensors and everything works (and looks) great...

Are your wheels factory or reproductions?

It doesn't matter, they're the same (except one has a GM stamp). You won't have an issue, go for it. :cheers:
