Default Z06 wheels on 2017 grand sport

I have currently this wheels on my Grand Sport:



Front : 285/30 ZR19
Rear : 335/35 ZR20

I am interested in replace them by Z06 rims as this model



Are the wheels of the Z06 fully adaptables on a 2017 grand sport?

You may want to offer up a trade as there are some Z06 owners who prefer the Cup wheels.

Yes, You could also sell your wheels if you want to do that to C6 Z06/ Grand Sport owners as well.

I still can't believe GM recycled the C6 Cup wheels as the stock C7 GS wheels.

OP...what color is your car? The reason I ask is that there are also satin black wheels with a red stripe that are very nice. Give you the option of red or yellow stripes, depending on your car/caliper color. I have the satin black wheels and really like the look.

Then I'd look for a set of the satin black wheels with the red stripe. My two cents...

I don't mind they used them because they do look great but I can't believe they didn't at least update the molds to use the new C7 Corvette Script. It looks a bit odd to see the C6 script on the wheel sitting right next to the C7 script on the Caliper.
