Default Will these fit?
They were supposedly made for a c6 but look like they fit fine on a c5z. Will they fit my TA fine?

It all has to do with the offset, +50mm is probably the most you can use.

If you could find out the width and backspacing, it would make your decision a LOT easier.....

Still trying to find out if these will fit my WS6. Front tires are 245/40/18 with about a 6 1/2 backspace. Rear tires are 285/35/19 with about an 8 1/2 backspace. Dont know the offsets.
