Corvette C5 Y2k wheels, 18x9.5 front, 18x10.5 rear? Or is it even possible? Thanks ahead of time!

 

BTT

 

you will need 2" spacers front and back, i have those wheels also

 

Did you have to hammer your wheelwell or trim fender lips? Do they rub at all?

 

nope, not at all, it fits really nicely and i even have it dropped 1.5", i will post a pic in a day or two, i am finishing up putting corvette brakes on the front, so it might change things, but i believe it might bring them about 1/4" which would be great. so i will post a pic of the wheel with the new brakes. but i just relized that my fronts are only 17" 245/35/17's, so your fronts might be different then mine. my rear is 275/40/18 and they fit awsome.

 

according to skulte it looks like I'm guessing 2" up front depending on the backspacing. And 2.25" in the rear. Billet Wheel Adapter FAQ - Skulte Performance Designs

 

Excellent! Can't wait for pics! Thanks very much guys!

 

i dont have spacers in the rear because i have 4th gen axle which are about 4" wider then 3rd gens

 

i'll get pics as soon as i can probaly tomarrow but i have 4thgen rearend with 18x9.5 in rear, and 17x8.5 245/45/17 in front i used 2inch spacers in the front and they still actually rup on the fender but i can't even notice it, it only does it if you turn the wheel like doing a U turn. 9.5 in the front i don't think a 2.25 spacer would even do it but they may. the 8.5 rims with low profile tires just keep the tire and rim even with the fender. i think a 9.5 would definitly stick out maby a little to much and look ghetto, but not sure take the wheel off and measure it thats what i did then you'll see how it will look.

 

here are the pics of my car once again front 17x8.5 245/45/17 rear 18x9.5 275/40/18 the rear is a 4th gen rearend,front required 2"spacers the front tires look to be weird shaped kinda inward because i am almost done with putting my new engine in and i haven't put any force on the springs yet so thats why it looks all jacked up but i can tell you they don't stick out at all and tuck very nice under the car. and the other post is the other 2 pics couldn't post them all togeather

 

other 2, last pic is of the rear if you want a pic of the front rims with a clear pic of the spacers just pm me i will send you one.

 

so are your rear wheels 10.5 wide correct? and you have a 2" spacer? i'm just making sure because i really want these wheels to fit my car the first time i put them on.

does anybody have a good picture of the rear with c5 zo6 wheels 18X10.5 without the 4th gen rear? if so what size of spacer do you have?

 

TTT

I am wondering the same thing as I'm thinking of getting 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 Z06 rims...I have a 9" Ford rear but it is the stock third gen width

 

you going to need 2 inch spacers in the back just like the fronts, 4th gen axle is 4" wider, dont know about 9 ford end
