CCW C5 on a C6?

[valdeztke]

I talked to dan and he said they would need .5 less offset to be perfect, but has anyone ever run a set of 19x10 and 19x11 CCW's cut for a C5Z on a C6?

Not exactly what you asked for but I thought I'd share what I tried a few days ago.

I was curious to see exactly how my C5 CCWs would "fit" on my C6.
Wheels are 18x10 and 19x11.5 running z06 rubber.

Fronts are flush with fenders and will work (as far as I can tell) but rears are a whole 1" outboard.

I knew the rears would not fit but now I know by how much.

I'll probably sell the rear wheels and get a new rear set from John (19x12) planning on future z06 rear panels.

Well mine are only 19x11 in the rear...I wonder how those would look with the Z06 panels on the rear?

Mine stick out almost that far on my C5 now

Mainly because of the 325-30-19 rubber is wayy to much tire for me on an 11' wheel

Nothing six degrees of camber won't fix...lol...jk!

The answer to your question is yes they fit, but they will stick out. We use two different forgings. The standard 19x11 that we cut for a C5 has a 3" lip. The 19x11 forging we use on the C6 has a 2" lip to accommodate the brakes and they are cut with different backspacings. The fronts will fit without a problem. I hope this helps.

Sounds like with our offset differences, your rear wheels are sticking out about 1/2" more than mine on a C5 body.

However, I'm guessing on a C6, your rear wheels would then stick out about 1.5" which is approximately what z06 rear panels would provide you. Could be real close.

I miss running my CCWs They will have to stay in storage for now.

Do you have a pic from on top or behind so really see how much the stick out?

Here is another pic of the 19x11.5". Again, I never ran these on my C6, but just wanted to see how far they would stick out.
