I have a C5 Corvette Z06 and am going to put 18x9.5 and 19x11 using C5 offset wheels on it, the tires will be 275 35 18 and 305 30 19, will these fit on my C6 Corvette coupe also . I have seen the reversed asked many times.

But I still don't know why you would want to put C5 wheels on a C6 ??
Isn't that like a down grade Putting smaller wheels on the C6??
Hey I own a C5 and I wouldn't put C4 or C3 wheels on it. But I would upgrade to a C6 wheel package.
Just curious.

yes they will fit.
a forum member is running them on his C6Z for track use while using hefty spacers to clear the stock Z calipers. I believe clearance for the stock C6 brakes is fine.
regarding the smaller size diameter, the Z was slammed with the C5Z wheels on his car.

The C5 Z06 wheels fix on the C6. A few guys use the 17 inch fronts on the rear of the C6 for 17 inch drag radials! I use the early C5 wagon wheels for my 17 inch MT drag radials
