I need some advice on wheel/tire setup
I have a 98 c5 and I want to get a set of rear wheels(cheap) for the drag strip
I was wondering what fits without grinding, and what are some of the setups other forum members use. thanks -chris

C4 wheels will fit your bolt pattren. JROD uses then on his car at the track with GREAT success!!! I have a video of his car at the track but I cant figure out how to post it or find the link. They seem to work fine on his car!
See if you can contact him and get his advice.

I bought some 18 x 10.5 chrome thin spokes from "House of Wheels" and mounted BFG Drag Radials, they made me a smokin deal on the wheels :cheers:

I'm glad you got the wheel thing figured out. Normally questions get answered pretty quick on the forum. I don't know why no one replyed back to you.

There is a Drag Racing specific forum (here on the CF) that would have been a great place to post this topic... You may have gotten your question answered a little faster over there... In any case, I am glad that the guys answered your questions you needed to know.
BTW, I have posted topics (questions) previously that were never answered.. so dont take it personally. :crazy:
