Corvette C6 OEM wheels On 2000 camaro Will OEM front 5-spoke C6 wheels fit fine all the way around?? I know that the rear is like a 78mm offset and the front have like a 58mm or someting?? I know that if you get the rear rims that i will need to get spacers so i thought what about putting 4 fronts on instead if the offset is right.

I recently found and bought a set of stock C6 rims myself. For the 19's to fit on the rear requires a 1.25" spacer, so I had the same thought as you and went out and tried the 18's on the rear this evening...I think they'll need a spacer too...I've only got about 1" of clearance with just the rims and I'm afraid once I mount the tires, they'll rub. The 18's also sit a little further in the wheel well without spacers and might look a little odd too. The C6 fronts are 18x8.5 with 56mm offset. I was hoping to go 18's all the way around as well, but if I've got to run spacers no matter what for them to fit on the rear, then I might as well use the 19's. I'm considering running 19's all the way around now and using spacers on all 4 corners. I'm also thining I'm going to go with a 275/30/19 tire which will only throw the speedo off a 1/2 MPH. They're 25.5" tall vs. the stock 25.66" and Tirerack has the 275/30/19 General Exclaim UHP for $148 each. MUCH cheaper than the stock C6's 285/35/19.
