Default Wheels... Bolt patterns, offsets?

Hi guys,

Tried searching but I can't find it.

Which bolt pattern (5x120...?) and offset do C6's use?

Thanks

bolt pattern is correct and factory offsets are +57 mm in front and +79 mm in back, however many aftermarket wheel companies will suggest a slightly different offset

I hate using this word but, Can I assume that rims from my previously owned 2006 will fit om my 2009. I m thinking of powder coating them if so.

As long as you are going from C6 to C6, yes the wheels will fit.

If you are going from a C6 to GS or Z06 (or vice versa), no they won't.

Ah cool. I was worried they might be 5x120.65 rather than 5x120.

cheers
