Will 19" c6 rims fit the rear?
Friend of mine was looking into get c6 18s in the front and 19s in the rear. Will these fit on an unlowered 02 t/a?

No one is really touching on the topic. The C6 19s are a 79offset i believe while the 18s are a 54 offset. If they WOULD fit i would buy them but i think you will need a serious adapter to get the rear to fit properly.

I'm looking to have custom wheels made and the idea of flaring the fenders is open to me. I've been trying to get tire sizes, and it looks like the 2005 C6 gets 245/40YR18 RunFlat up front and 285/35YR19 RunFlat in back. The 2006 C6 Z06 gets even wider tires out back:
18 x 9.5-inch front wheels with 275/35ZR18 tires and 19 x 12-inch rear wheels with 325/30ZR19 tires
Tires for the 05 C6 are $336 (f) and $404 (R) each. I can't even find goodyears for the 06 Z06 yet
Be prepared for increased costs all around when jumping up to this size

I have the C6 18's and 19's. I'd suggest waiting until they make these wheels with our offset. Getting the wheels to work were a real bitch. We had to have some spacers custom machined. We also had to buy longer bolt extensions.
I am running the C6 runflat tires because they really don't have any other tires out yet to fit the C6 size.
we have had a few friends in our area try to do the same thing and they all sent the wheels back because they couldn't get them to work.

Yeah what I meant was the bolt on adapters. Someone sells the 2 inch size on ebay though a 1 inch might work.

They may stick out a bit. Incidentally AFS makes the C6 style in FBody offsets

I've had the car tuned and they calibrated the speedo for me.
It's just off a tad.

I ended up paying just around $1000 for wheels and tires.
