C6 Replicas

I am looking at some Corvette C6 replica rims, I would like to go 17X8.5 front 18X10 OR 18X10.5 rear... I plan on dropping a newer camaro rear end in the car with disc brakes and posi. The rear end I am looking at now is a 98 (I think these are shorter?) But if I find myself one from 93-97 that is a few inches wider should I be able to fit 10.5" tires in the rear? I think the stock fronts are already 8.5 correct? Please enlighten me.

Re: C6 Replicas

The 93-02s are wider allowing larger rear wheels. I don't know about 10.5s, but my 9.5s fit nicely. You can see pics on my CarDomain (click my sig pic). The largest stock front is a 8 inch. I have 9.5s on the front of mine, but I have to run a 2 inch spacer. What backspacing are you goin to get on your wheels?
