Default Wheels and coolant

2 questions... Does anyone know if the wheels from a 14-15 StingRay Z51 will fit a C5? What coolant will work in a C5 (LS1) without gumming up the works. As always thanks for the replies!

Yes the wheels will work with a 1 inch spacer in the rear.

Use what your car has in it now. It came originally with Dexcool. You will have problems if you mix Dexcool with the other type anti-freezes. You can always give the system a COMPLETE flush and then use whatever you prefer.
