Default C7 Z06 Wheels on C6 Z06 - Anybody?

I did some searching and was only able to find one person running this wheel setup on a C6 ZR1. Is anyone running this setup on their C6 Z06? Post pics if so

Stock Wheels Specs:
C7: 19 x 10 +43 (F) / 20 x 12 +59 (R)
C6: 18 x 9.5 +40 (R) / 19 x 12 +56 (R)

Thread with ZR1 running this setup: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...06-wheels.html

Not able to post a picture right now but I am running chrome C7Z wheels on my VY 2006. Looking to get rid of them for black ones though.

Did you buy this one? If so, I think the chrome looks fantastic...and I'm not really a chrome rim guy.

Yes! That is mine. The chrome is definitely growing on me but I have added a black C6.5 spoiler and putting on carbon splitter and side skirts and I think black wheels would tie in a little bit better. Also, the chrome is a nightmare to keep clean with all the brake dust.

With the brake dust I get from Carbotech pads, I can't imagine having that many spokes to clean. They do look damn good though!

still think Cup wheels are one of the nicest - Satin, not flat and not glossy - just right

Not to derail this......

I'm a month late on this thread, but how's the offset on the front with those C7 Z06 wheels? One of the few things I really do not like about my '13 GS is the weak front off set. From certain angles it just looks silly. It needs another 15 mm outwards to look good. If you have a pic straight down the side that would be helpful!

The guy in post #3 has some good angles to show they're flush on his...wheels are OE C7Z wheels, and he runs spacers.

I can check when I get home. The previous owner put the wheels on but I still have the boxes which have the specs on an outside sticker i believe.

The fitment is way better then the stock GS wheels. The wheels are .5inches wider in front and offset is like 3mm lower. Plus, I put 5mm spacers all around on my car with ET lugnuts. Just the 19/20 combo looks so much better then the 18/19 on the stock GS wheels. I could have easily went with a wider spacer, but didnt want to change my studs
