PIC REQUEST: C6 Z06 Replica Wheels on a Lowered C6
I'm lowering my C6 Convertible with lowering bolts and I was considering using wheel spacers to push the wheels to the fender edge. If you have any photos of your C6 with Z06 Replicas and it's lowered please post them 
If you have photos let me know the size and where you purchased them from.
Thanks!

I'm ready to pull the trigger with either the WCC or House of Wheels but I hope they have a more aggressive offset then my factory wheels do. I was going install wheel spacers to push the wheels to the fender edge but everybody bashed it so hopefully you guys can help me decide which way to go.
Any photos from the rear of the car so I can see how close the fit to the fender edge?!?

No need for spacers with our wheels. The offset is a little more aggressive and they fit flush with the fenders/QTR panels.

That's what we want! Just kidding.
Let me know if you have any questions. I sent that Pm yesterday back to you. Not sure if you got it though.

Did some research and made a few calls: As long as you don't go any bigger than 1/4 inch spacers and get a set of ET lug nuts, you are fine with spacers. 1/4 inch is enough to push the wheels out in order to fill in the wheel wells and will not put any extra strain on your vehicle's suspension or barrings. From what I was told, anything bigger than 1/4 inch spacers will require longer wheel studs and will also "begin" to effect your vehicle stability and "may" cause mechanical failure. This is just what I found in my reserch, someone else may know different.

subscribed! Do you have to choose the offset for those or are they standard?

It seems like the WCC and other companies sell the Z06 Reps for the C6 and the rears are 19x10’s. Supposedly they have a more aggressive offset than the factory wheels do so I won’t need to use a spacer. House of Wheels I believe sells their Z06 reps with a 19x11, can anybody confirm that?!?! Any photos from the rear of the car will be appreciated!!!
