19x10 C6 Wheel Fitment Question
I know, I know, another C6 wheel thread....
I was wondering what you guys had to do for the 19x10 C6 wheels to fit in the back. Did you have to modify the bump stops, or the BFH mod to the inner fenders? Or did they bolt right up?

Here's a thread:

GM C6 wheels have a 79 mm offset in the rear. They will not fit without custome machined wheels spacers (over 1" wide) and longer wheel studs. Teri from that post is the only one I've seen that made it work. You can buy C6 reproductions up to 19"x10" that have an offset that will bolt right up.

I should have mentioned in my first post. The wheels I bought are repros that have a 57mm offset. Is it still a PITA to get these to fit even with the 57mm offset?

18x10.5 aftermarket Z06 wheels are 56mm offset and just bolted right on my car......I would venture to say they will just bolt right on. There will be no need for a bumpstop mod because your wheel is big enough to clear them, guy's with 15" wheels usually have to mod bumpstops......you'll see what I'm sayin........word of caution......it will make your day a ton easier if you jack the back of the car up by the AXLE!! lol.......when the wide wheel drops down is when it hits the bumpstop

From what you've said above, you probably won't need them-but for anyone else considering the genuine C6 rims, you can get the spacer/adapters on Ebay also. These are the kind where the adapter bolts to the hub and the wheel bolts to the adapter. You can get them as thick as 2 inches but I believe 1.25 inches will suffice. 1.25 inches = 31.75 mm for an adjusted offset of 47.25 mm. There is a hubcentric model also.
