has anyone ever used c5 corvette wheels?
so ive been on the hunt for a new set of wheels since I bought my truck. last night I kind of had an epiphany and im wondering if anyone has ever used these z06 wheels on our trucks?
I obviously understand that I would need a 5x5 --> 5x4.75 adapter and I found some that are 1.5" thick which would help take care of some of the backspacing issues. im wondering if I should try and find a set of adapters that are 2". I haven't been able to find them as of yet but I have pulled up several old threads where people mention that they bought some so they have to be out there. specs on these 2001-2004 Z06 wheels are: Front: Wheel size: 17 x 9.5 Offset: +54mm Tire Size: 265/40/17 Back Spacing: 7.38” (187.35mm) Rear: Wheel size: 18 x 10.5 Offset: +58mm Tire Size: 295/35/18 Back Spacing: 8.03” (204.05mm) so if I were to find a 2" set of adapters that would make the front 17x9.5 with a 5.38" backspace and the rear an 18x10.5 with a 6.03" backspace...I would also be using 255/50-17 tires up front and 275/55-18 tires in the rear logistically would this even be close to working? or would I still be about 0.5" shy of being able to pull this off? here are a few pics of the truck in question. my current setup is front: 18x8.5 4.5" backspace 255/45/18 rear: 18x9.5 5.5" backspace 295/55/18 |
