What size 16" rims and ET Streets for a C5?

MyFirstCorvette · 01-04-2004, 02:24 AM

I'm looking for inexpensice 16" rims to mount some ET Streets that I'm going to buy to match the rims for my C5

For the rims what bolt pattern, offset and width do I need? Any recommendations on a cheap, light rim?

What size ET Streets should I use?

Traction is very important, this is a Procharged car with an ATI-D1SC that makes the "normal" amount of HP for this setup. I'd like to put the widest tire possible. (without looking ridiculous)

Thanks in advance for any suggestions! :cheers:

I bought a set of 99 Camaro 16" rims for $100 (4). They work perfectly with 10.50 x 26.0 ET Streets. You willhave to grind just slightly on the tops of rear spindles. Good luck. :seeya

:iagree: This will work. I spray painted the area and used a metal file. When you put the wheel back on it will remove the paint when it hits it. Respray and grind.
