I dont own these, but from some meets I've talked to C5 owners with these wheels. they say that if you buy repro-C6Z wheels(which have correct offset for C5's) like the yellow one I posted they fit very flush unlike OEM C6Z wheels which would stick pretty far out.

My rears are 19x12 stock C6Z06 and stick out but I have the fenders to take care of that....Get the re-pros and they will be fine.

I just bought a car that has some of these - only problem is that my hubs are a little rusty and they are quite visible behind these wheels. Should I paint them black or something? The rest of the car doesn't have any rust on it all that I can see.

Get the C6Z51 brackets for the calipers and the bigger Z51 rotors and paint the interior of the rotor with some high temp silver paint. Looks awesome for about 500.00 bucks.

Yes...The calipers are the same and they bolt right up. The rotor differences are 13.4" vs 12.8" front, 13" vs 12" rear.
