Default Quick wheels size question

Will a 17x9.5 rim fit on the back of a C5 w/o grinding anything?

Will a 17X11 wheel fit on the back of a C5?

Thanks

Yes, both of those wheel sizes will fit on the back of a C5.

The 17X9.5 will even fit on the front of a C5.

I could slap those on an extra set of 17 x 9.5 WS6 rims I have for track duty! :hurray:

When I get my C5 that is :sad:
