factory c5 wheels Easy question for you all I hope. Will the factory c5 wheels (17x9.5 18x10.5) fit on my 02 SS?? If so I was going to get 275or55/40/17 and 295/35/18 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW-2. Answers, thoughts, or opinions please.

Yes they will bolt right up no issues but why are you running a 55 side wall on the fronts. That will not look good at all. But I would double check the 10.5 wheel. They where 18x9.5 for thin spokes.

thanks, but no that's not a 55 sidewall...I meant 255/40/17 the reason for the 255 is because the tire I want doesn't come in 275.... also will I run into any problems running staggered wheels?

They will fit. I've got C5s on my Formula. They are the older style though. The off set brings the wheel inward on the car though. I had to do a slight "hammer mod" to the inner fenderwells in the rear due to rubbing on sharp turns.
I'd like to get some spacers, 5/16" or so for mine.
