You need a larger spacer. 1/2 inch is about 13mm. You need at least a 1.25 inch spacer to bring the offset low enough for them to fit. I just took off my c6 79mm wheels and used a 1.25" spacer with them.

I have two I can sell for $55 shipped btw, about 300 miles on them.

Not if you get hubcentric spacers which are the route to go. They bolt right on, and you don't have to use longer studs.

your rear isn't centered. get an adjustable panhard bar. our rear ends sit a little off center from the factory.

When that rear is centered correctly, there is no way a 1/2" spacer will cut it. 66mm is still way to high of an offset to fit correctly.

REAR Only

10.0" ... +38 to +54 mm .... 275, 285, 295

What is the offset on the wheels? They must not be corvette 79mm..because a 1/2 inch spacer would bring it down to 66mm, which is no where close to fitting.

Well that explains it lol. I had the same exact set on my old camaro! My rear 19x10's were 64mm.

I originally thought they were oem wheels. Aftermarket are a different story. You'll be fine with after you center the rear.
