Will the 17x9.5 FM5's clear my front C5 conversion on my LS1 SS?

I've not found any solid information on this. Thanks!

Stock 10spokes cleared on my friends WS6 w/ Corvette brake kit. He rocked them while his new wheels were on there way and his old had sold. I'd imagine FM5's would clear fine.

My 18's are snug . . so I would have to say no . . the shape or the spoke and assembly hardware would prevent it from fitting . . . now if you had a Fikse designed for a Corvette they would be OK.
