05 vette wheels

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=43958

Ad says that they will fit 93 and up camaros etc. Does the offset look right?
Any thoughts would be great!

Re: 05 vette wheels

This 2005 Corvette C6 style wheels ready to bolt onto your C5 or older model Corvette.

Specifications:
Front: 17 x 8.5 +58mm offset
Rear: 18 x 9.5 +65mm offset
They will "fit" OK, probably with minimal problems, but they are going to sit maybe 1/2" deeper in the wheel wells that you might want them. The fronts will have the outer edge of the wheel/tire pretty much where the stock 16x8 sits, and the rear will be similar to where the stock 17x9 WS6/SS wheel sits. With a 7.8" backspace, that also might result in some rubbing of the inside edge of the tire on the inner fender liner, at least if you put a really meaty tire on it. Whether or not you will have rubbing in the back seems to vary quite a bit between individual cars.
