C6 Wheels/Tires
 
Think I read C6 wheels and tires are a direct swap over or no?

Set for sale from a neighbor. Bolt pattern works but not sure about anything else. These are 18's front 19's rear.

Any issues with body panels rubbing/brakes/stance etc? Hubcentric?

Anyone got a picture of a C4 ZR1 on C6 wheels?

Thanks

I have a set of regular C6 rims (non zo6) the rears have 305 30 R 888 that I tried on my car. They will not fit on the car without spacers to prevent rubbing even if they did fit they would look very lame because they do not fill the wheel well. The fronts have 255 35 R 888 they work and look fine.

Thanks for the pics! Maybe 18" all around would be better?

Do you know if the 18" C6 fronts will rub if in the rear position?

I am asking because for whatever reason there are a lot of C6 wheels
for sale on Fleabay and craigslist and prices are good - $500ish for
all four. I would like to go to 18" wheels at my next tire change.

The 18x8.5 front fits in the rear but that is not much tire and will still look awful.

Until more 19" rubber became available, it was popular for a time to cut and widen C6 18" wheels to 11" to fit 305 width drag radials. So C6's were running 18" wheels on all 4 corners. it looks a little off on a C6, but might be ok on a C4.

Weldcraftwheels does this.
