Default can you put 19x10" C6 wheels up front on 02 SS?

I have them on the rear already, they need a spacer/adapter BAD to fill out the well a little, but i was thinking... could I do a set of 19x10s up front? The fronts look small compared to the rears and I want to even it out.

Sorry for posting a stupid question, I can never find **** when I search...

Here's a pic for reference.



Makes me want to put the current rears up front (285s) and do a 345 out back...

Thoughts? Opinions? Rude remarks? Links to goatse.cx

18" on the front? I just sold a set of these to a C5 Vette owner. My stance wasn't nearly as odd looking. Looks like you have 17's front and 19's rear. or that your rear alignment is way off.... Is it? It looks ok, but for your car I would stick a set of 19's up front. Not sure if they will fit though. Here is a pic of mine.

Yes. 1.25" spacer/adapter will make it work. Here's what mine looked like back when I had C6 19x10's all the way around. However, the ride was soooo bad with 275/30/19 tires, I'm now back on C5 Z06 18's.

I know right? They look stupid small. They're 18s for sure, but they look way little. All my alignment is good, other than the car working its way into road grooves it drives pretty straight.
