Default chrome C6 wheels on black ws6- opionions/pics?

i was considering chrome c6 replicas (19x10 rear / 18x8.5 front) for my black 98 WS6. I did a search but I couldnt find a lot of good pictures of these wheels on a black ws6.. does anyone have any pictures/opinions about these?

thanks-

I have C6 motorsport replicas on my black Z28. They're black with a polished face, and I love them. Bolted right up with no mods needed, and they look sweet.

C6 replica wheels will fit 18x8.5+54 and 19x10+79 will fit or do you have to get adapters to make them fit?

The replica wheels usually come in the 56mm offsets so that you dont need any adapters. The GM wheels have an insane offset which requires like a 2 inch spacer or something.

The tires I have fit the rims fine but they're a little narrow. I'm saving up for 305's. These are 275's.

There's a black WS6 around town here with the same wheels, and it looks awesome. You should definitely consider these.

The front OEM C6 wheels (18X9.5) will bolt right on no problem, they are only a 58 mm offset. the rear 19X10s have a severe (for an FBody) +79mm offset, but it only requires a 1.25 inch thich adapter, the kind with it's own studs that bolts onto the hub. If you use a regular spacer ,you will probably have to get longer studs.

I just got a set of OEM C6 wheels for my WS6 18X9.5 and 19X10, so this means Im going to need adapters in the back? Will the wheel stick out if I put on these adapters?
