C6 Wheels on a C4?

I found a good deal on painted C6 wheels, 18x8.5 and 19x10. Will these work okay on a C4? What are the tire choices I could go with? 245/40/18 front and 275/30/19 rear

Thanks everyone!

Jason

If they are stock C6 offsets, the rear will not fit w/o the use of a 1" adapter. As for tire sizes you will probably want to step up to a 295/30/19 out back.

Stock rear C6 wheels have a 79mm offset, while our C4 wheels have a 56mm offset. That is a difference of 23mm (25.4mm in 1") that is why you'll need adapters for the rears, otherwise they'll rub on the inside.
