Default weld RTS question...

buddy selling his 15" weld RTS wheels off of his trans am and they are running 295/65/15 MT ET drag radials.... would these work on a base model c6????

I'm currently lookin for pics to get an idea of how it'll sit but I would like a set of wheels for some sticky tires. car is all stock for now but I'm definitely wanting to get some practice in on real tires.

!5 inch won't fit unless you change the spindles among other things. 17 is the smallest that fir the car as is.

No 16,s will fit under the rear with stock c5 brakes, How to get LG spindles cost 1500.00 for those. How tall is that tire just thinking here you cant get a 29 inch tall tire under the rear also.

I was told 16 requires some grinding, but have not actually tried it. Went with 17's to avoid the issue.
