silverWS.6

So I'm looking into buying some CCW's (SP500) from a guy but he has them on a C5 Z06 Corvette, so I'm a little iffy if they'll fit on my 2002 WS.6? I know the bolt pattern should be the same but I'm not sure if the offset will be an issue here. The wheels are 19x10 and 19x11.5... I will roll my fenders and will bang up the inside a little bit more but I really don't wanna use spacers.


What do you guys think?

Perhaps you should ask the seller what the offset of the wheels is.

Depends. I believe C5 offset for the rear is around 79mm for the Y2K wheels. Ideally you would need those rears at around a 30mm offset to not run a spacer.

I say get em if you can, try em out on your car and look at the options as far as what it would rake for em to fit, if there is no option to get em to fit, sale em to another Vette owner and try to make a lil profit off of them.

I did ask for the offset but he said he didn't know, I guess running spacers with hardened studs would be a bit safer but then I don't want them to stick out a lot. I would like them to be flush like my current C6 Z06 wheels.

Call John or Chip at CCW - ccwheel.com.

They are great people. I just bought my second set of wheels from them.

I'm selling my Big Street Classics from my C5 and it would be interesting to know if they will fit an F-body. My new wheels are SP500's. 18x10 and 19x13 to run 275x35 and 345x30 tires.

Yea I'm gonna try that, the guy that is selling them to me wants to go with 13's in the back so that's why he is selling.

Wheels and tires only have 2500 miles and are wrapped in nitto invo tires and all for 3 g's, good deal or no?

Considering the wheels alone are around that price yes it is. If you have to spend a few bucks installing studs and a spacer so be it

As a couple of people have already said, call CCW and ask them. If the offsets aren't right, BUT the price is REALLY right, buy them anyway, send them to CCW, and they can put different front and rear "shells" on the centers that will give you the offset you need.

This is the beauty of a 3 pc. wheel. The center is the expensive part of the wheel, while the shells are relatively inexpensive to change.

The SP500 is a one piece wheel. The Big Street Classics are 3 piece. The shells are about $150/shell.

I forgot that the SP500 is a 1 pc. I've had a couple of sets of CCWs over the years, but it's been a while since I've looked closely at their catalog...

You could buy my Classics and look at them very closely...

They will bolt right up but suffer the sunken in look like most of the OEM C5 wheels do. Guess its a matter of preference and what you can live with . The OEM 17x9 SS wheels have a 50 mm offset . From that you can use a offset calculator and compare the C5 wheels you wanna buy. It will tell you exactly where the rim will sit in the wheel well compared to the stock wheels .

If you know the offsets of the C5 wheels your buying this calculator should allow you to figure out any question you may have ....and decide on an appropriate spacer if need be .
