C5 Z06 Corvette Wheels

[TheGreenDragon]

Was doing my usual browsing and came across this picture.

OEM C5 Z06 wheels, painted black. 17x8.5 et31. These were the wheels that started me on my unhealthy obsession with rims.

I think I'm gonna have to figure out how to get my hands on a set and adapt them to the Sonic.

Anyone know of any good resources for Corvette OEM wheels?

You may be able to find a set from a corvette forum or even a set of replicas.

Only ones I've found so far are 17x9.5" et56. The C5 seems to be old enough, that actual OEM wheels are almost impossible to find, so replicas would definitely be the way to go.

I've been eye humping these wheels all winter but I've decided against wheels that need adapters for my first set of aftermarket 18's. I'm honestly surprised I haven't seen anyone here running something like this yet

They dont clear brembos...... If you own a Subaru it spent any time on Subaru forums you get why this is funny

Xxxxxx are 114.3's and GM's are 115's (mm's)
did they just "bend" the studs to do that?

That's no Honda. That's a 5x112 pcd from Deutschland.

Apparently it's a 'thing' to put Corvette wheels on a Golf.

Nope. 5x112. Corvettes have a pcd of 5x120.65 because 'Murica.
