Depend on the width of your wheels. . . .

9.5" width - Uhm, NO . . .

10.5" width - yes.

Well, "true" C5 wheels are 9.5" wide . . .

Z06 wheels are 10.5" wide . . .

There is no such animal as a 11" wide C5 wheel . . . .

How can we answer your question when you don't tell us how wide your wheels are?

And I've told you the answer already.
