Default Anyone try C6 corvette wheels on a SS or WS6?

Has anyone on here tried putting a set of the new C6 Corvette wheels on their Camaro SS or T/a WS6? Or does anyone have pics of them on a SS or WS6? Thanks, Matt

I like them because they are different, not many people are running them. Everybody has Zr1's , 10 spokes, or TTII's. Do you have any more pics of the white SS with those wheels? And where did you buy them?

Its hard to pull these wheels off on f-bodies. You just have to have the right appearance mods and chose the right style of C6 wheels.

I have had mine on my car since March .... I love them! I have had a ton of people stop me and compliment me on the wheels choice. Not everyone has them .... yet at least.

I have actually considered selling mine for the new Z06/Z07 wheels

I have Eibach Sportlines on the car .... no spacers where put on the car.



I went with 17's all the way around since the car was lowered so much and I didnt want to deal with the rubbing issue that the company where I bought them from as well as shop that I deal with thought I would come across if I went bigger.

I bought mine from Corvette's of Houston back in March. They were shipped to a friends body shop and as soon as tires were put on the wheels they were mounted on the car with no problem.

If you get the GM C6 rims, not reproductions, the front 18X8.5s will fit but the rear 19X10s will NOT fit unless you use a spacer/adapter or some other modification. The GM rears have a +79 offset.
