Corvette rims
 
Are there rims like this, http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...ckonblack2.jpg

Corvettes are GM's and GM uses a 5x4.75" bolt pattern, we use a 5x4.5" bolt pattern, they won't fit. Besides, they're probably far too wide with too high an offset to fit anyway.

I thought about doing it(fc), you would need a pretty tricky wheel adapter/spacer setup, probably custom built.

I was going to use these, the front spacer would have to go from 5x4.5 to 5x4.75 and be 40+mm thick(effectively making a 17x9.5 wheel with a 10-15mm offset), with some wide fenders. Rears would have to have the same adapter, but only about 30-35mm thick. I decided to scrap that idea because getting the spacer made would have been almost as expensive as the wheels themselves, and using spacers/adapters that thick made me kinda uncomfortable. It would probably work better with an FD seeing as the spacers wouldn't have to be as thick and you could get away with stock fenders.

PS...I like how a whole set of z06 motorsport wheels are cheaper than one single Advan Model 5, lol

offset 54 is hard to fit

replica wheels have an offset that will work, but the bolt pattern is still different.
