You can run the Z06 tires on the C5 rims. Thay will fit just fine. I have 295's on my rears. I am sure the 98 tires will fit on Z06 rims but it might look odd. kaley

I have a 2000 and am running 265/45/17 in the front and 295/40/18 on the stock rims with no problems for 6 months now. Might be differnet for you if your car is lowered. Mine is not.
