For Those Running GTO Spares Up Front...
I was planning on tossing my GTO spares up front with some M&H Tires but was wondering what size Spacers you guys are running on the C5-C5Z's??? Also what are you guys using for Lug nuts... Thanks... I plan I doing this with some 18in C5 Thin Spokes out back...

Unless the 'slightly inboard' look really bothers you then you don't actually need to use any spacers or adapters at all.
The only reason to use the spacers on a C5/C5 Z06 would be to clear larger aftermarket rotors/calipers or to avoid the slight bit of filing/grinding needed to the GTO spare's center hub area (so it fits over the center hub/ring area on the car).
Stock lug nuts work just fine as well. But do keep in mind that the GTO spare's bolt pattern is not the exact same as the standard C5's pattern but it's close enough (5x4.72 versus 5x4.75).
