will a 19x12 (325-30R19) fit a c5? I am wondering if a set of 2010 grand sport rims will fit a c5 vert? I know the front 18" will fit but not sure on the 325/30/19 on the rear. Anybody know?

He will need widebody rear fenders for sure! No doubt! I run 20x13s with 325/25-20 ZR1 tires and had to widebody her. You could get wheels with the right offset and do a minitub instead. But, as for bolting them on a C5 or C6 vert or anyVette they will stick wayyyyyy out.

Whats this fender like an aftermarket quarter panel!?? Idc what they look like or how he does it he just wants to know will they fit. So they will fit stock and just stick out until he gets this rear fender or no they will not fit due to clearance issues???

Ok, I am not trying to start an argument here.. my buddy has a set of Factory C6 z06 wheels on his millenium yellow Z...they bolted right on, he had to remove his rear brake cooling duct for clearance.
They maybe stick out an inch past the rear fender, he is lowered all the way on factory bolts front and rear.
The factory c5 z06 tires aren't as wide as the wheels, they actually taper in to be flush with the top of the rear fender. IMO think the flared fenders a little overkill because the sideshot clearly shows how large the opening looks with low profile tires.
I would suggest you read the Corvette hand book, they actually mention this exact wheel set up and state how you will be around 7/8" inch past the front and rear fenders, and how this might cause rock chips. And if your really set on some c6 wheels they state were to get the proper replicas to fit with the right offset.
Seeing his set up actually made me want to do the same thing..just haven't found cheap wheels yet
