Default Z06 rims without the tires onto the Z51

Hey there I'm looking to purchase some Z06 rims without tires to put onto my z51 but I was wondering if i could fit the rims on with 305's in the rear and 265's in the front because I'm sure the stock Z06 tires won't fit into my z51

This will not wk will look stupid rims will still stick out from the fenders & qt panels in the rear. The rear will hang out over 1/2 inch big time. Robert

Why not just mount the tires on the stock Z 51 wheels, zo6 wheels are the wrong offset plus they crack …... … use the stock Z51 wheels but you are taking a chance that you will crack your fenders

Just buy Z06 replica wheels in the correct size / offset for your Z51. Just upgraded the wheels and tires on my roadster.
