It depends on the exact width and offset of the Corvette wheels. Are they "factory" wheels, or aftermarket? If they are factory are they the base model or Z06 wheels?

I bought some genuine OEM 2006 C6 Corvette wheels & tires from my local Craigslist for my '96 Z28. Just got them put on last night. The fronts are 18x8.5 with 245/40-18's & the rears are 19x10 with 285/35-19's. I ended up buying some 1.25" spacers for the rears as many on here have suggested for using these rims. Worked perfectly, as you can see! I am also waiting on delivery of a Bilstein lowering kit (springs, struts, shocks) from a member here. As well as an adjustable panhard bar & LCA relocation brackets. Can't wait to get it all installed. Should be a bit better than the completely stock 170k mile suspension I'm riding on right now!

For stock C6 base model wheels, the detailed answer to the question is in the second "sticky" at the top of the Wheels and Tires forum topic listing.... "C6 OEM Wheels on a 4th Gen"
