Default 2006 Vette C6 rims on WS6? Yes, but do you have pics of Z06 rims?

Will a set of 2006 Vette C6 rims fit on a WS6?

Stock C6 rims off of a vette...You will need spacers.
Replicas should fit.

Correct me if i'm wrong.

How do you like them MCG? How much were they? Would it be bad to use spacers?

i got the set for about $870 shipped i believe. i love them, i have a picture but it's just from my cell phone. when it gets warmer i'll clean it and get some real pictures w/ my digital camera. i don't run spacers but you probably could.

for tires i got bfgoodrich kdw2 275 and 295/35.

I have the exact same setup as McG. I am using 5/16" spacers though. Stock C6 rims will require spacers.

1.25" adaptors for the rear (19x10"), fronts (18x8.5") should fit without adaptors.

From what I've found the factory rear 19x10 offset is 79mm. Which is about an inch more than you need. So a 1 1/4" adapter would give you an offset of 48mm. That is about what you need. I would personally wait until you get the rims and then see if you want a 1.25" or maybe a 1.5" adapter to push the rears out a little more to make it look better.

There's also an Ebay store that has hubcentric adapters called ezaccessory and cost about $60 pr.
