I haven't seen a thread on this yet. The swap to 5 lug hubs is not difficult. What wheels does this open us up to? There are many different c5 and c6 corvette wheels out there.

Would be interested to know as well because I have a whole cts sitting for parts and its got all the wheel equipment on it. Wonder If that could be used???but then again would I have to change the V brake calipers as well?? They just had to put some rediculous 6 bolt patern on this car...so stupid every other automobile manufacturer can do just fine with 4 bolts and 5 on sports cars.

I imagine backspacing and clearing the big brakes is gonna be a bigp roblem with any OEM wheel.

The calipers can stay, the rotors need to be redrilled. Corvettes have pretty big brakes on some models..

Isnt it that the c5z hubs and rotors work. The only thing that was the problem is you loose the e brake?

and if thats the case you have a choice of any 5x120.6 wheels depending on the offset....
