Default making 02 z06 rims fit

i got some oem z06 rims. does any one have picts of what they hammered to get these to fit. the subframe in front of the rear wheels hits on my car. i didnt want to hammer out the subframe. i did take out the bump stops and massage other areas though.

I believe the offset for both C5 and C6 Z06 rims are different, and thats the reason for you having to massage things in order to make them fit. I dunno what you've gotta do to make these fit outside of getting the proper offset.

sorry it is the 02 gunmetal z06 rims. i might look into getting custom spacers made that make the hub fit properly. the corvette hub is larger than the camaro's. does any one know who makes custom spacers?

Z06 wheels are a direct bolt on..no hub needed also the offset should be right for the camaro..
