Looked into them, and yes they do fit. The front for some reason is a half inch wider than ours but uses the same size tire as the C7 ZO6 .which is a 10" wide rim.

Humm. Is .5" too much on the C6Z front? Will that be sticking out?

I think it might flush up pretty good...many guys have put 1/2 spacers up front on C6Z's. Obviously it becomes a preference thing, but here's one example... https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...tep-on-in.html

You are correct, it looks real good. Will have to move the rears as well to match.

Don't know why they did not make the rears wider, had a set of HRE's on my other car that where 10.5" and 12.5" and sat nice and flush.

While I realize the comparison I'm about to give you is for an 18" wheel, most C6 Z06 CCW fitments for the C14, C10, etc. are 18x11 front, 18x13 rear
I'm willing to bet a 19x10.5 front would fit easily........I run 19x10 with a 1/8th steel spacer from my old 91 Z28 Camaro, just to widen the track a smidge

Do the C7 ZR1 wheels crack and snap like the C7Z wheels do? If they have the same problem, I don’t care how good they look.

My fronts are 18x10.5 +56 (with 12mm spacer so it +44 as it sits on the car).

I know they're not 19's but there's no rub with that width and offset
