Wheel Size Question
I have a 05 C6 with 3:15 rear-end. I was told that the C5 rear wheel 18would fit and also the Camaro SS 17 wheel would fit. Does anyone have any pictures and would you list the Pros & Cons for the 18 and/or 17 wheels on the rear.
Thanks

Depends on what you mean by "fit". The C5 rears will bolt on and clear the brakes but they have the wrong offsets for a C6.
The advantage of 17" or 18" wheels is the availability and price of 17"and 18" tires.

The 17" wheels might not fit if the car is a Z-51 that has the 13" brakes. Also, you have to maintain the correct ratio of the front tire diameter to the rear tire diameter that the car has with the 18" front & 19" rear stock wheels.
