C6 wheels on my c5
Hello...I've got a C5 with 17" and "18 wheels. I've come across a mint set of C6 wheels at a good price.
I'd like to make the swap, The C6 18" and 19" wheels require a lower profile tire.
Obviously there will be some differences, notably the ride and bending wheels.
Question is..Is the swap a bad idea? I'll appreciate your feedback. Thank you for reading.

Take a look at the C6 rims you have. If there is a deep recess between the lug holes you won't need to cut the ends off of the studs. You really only need a 20mm spacer to get the wheel on, but if the recess is not deep enough the 1 inch spacer may work better.
