Default C6 wheels on a C5?

I'm sure this has been beat to death, but I'm just curious if C6 OEM wheels will bolt on to an '04 C5? They're stock C6 wheel/tires all the way around.

I thought I read somewhere that the off-set was not right and there was some compatibility issues. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

The rear rims hit the inner fender/frame and would not fit without a wheel adapter on a '99 FRC we did this on. Those were factory C6 rims.

19" suck in the back anyways, because you have very few good tire choices as opposed to 18". Just my .02

the rears seem like they are sunken in a little, but i never had a problem with them
no spacers, no rubbing
i've thought about putting a spacer on the rear, but it would be just for looks and not fitment
fronts fit perfect and i havent had a problem finding 19" tires
