I was wondering if I were to get a set of C5's for my Z28 will I have to use spacers? Or will they go right on with no problem? I have a chance to get a silver set that look near perfect for $150 and only need the rear tires which are 18 inch the fronts are 17 inch and are like new. thanks in advance.

I believe they fit with no problems depending on rear tire size,im running the 19/18 combo with a rear spacer. What part of va are in?

im in Falls Church northern va like 20 mins outside of dc
Well I went on OEwheels and lookedat the back spacing of a vette rim and the vette rim made for the camaro and it was all the same so I am going to just wing it and try it out once I purchase them. I got to buy 2 rear tires when I get them so I can put them on the car. You ever come to old dominion speedway in manassas?

I have 17/18 C5s and they were on the car when I bought them. They go right on and off no prob for me. I really dont like how the rears arent flush with the fender though. Would spacers fix this?

Just price the rear tires first, imo im not a fan of stock c5 wheels, i think once ya see 18 inch tire pprices you might not go for the deal, imo dd zr1s fit the car better and tire prices for 17s are much cheaper

yup, the fender tapers inwards, which makes the effect from the rear that the wheels are sticking out of the fenders, same on the camaro as well...

I don't see how this would be possible since the offset of c5 rear wheels is higher.

You need a spacer if you want them to sit flush like a 17x11 wheel.

Yes spacers would fix that issue. A 1inch spacer should do IMO.
