C6 Wheels on a 98 SS

**zombone13** · 01-10-2008, 09:13 PM

Does anybody know where I can pick up a set of c6 wheels with the correct back spacing for a 98 SS? I was thinking 18x8.5 or 9.5 in the front and 18x9.5 or 10 in the rear. I have found a few places online that sell them but I dont want to buy anything until I know they will fit without beating my inner fender or sticking out a mile. Any info would be great.

That same place that a lot guys have gotten from on ebay seems good, OE Wheels, its where i got mine, mine are 17X9.5 all the way around, you can get offset 17X9.5 and 18X10.5. i dont know if you can get a full set of 18's. they come in various combos including gun metal, chrome, black chrome/hyper silver, black and black with chrome lips, C6 and Z06. i had some fitment issues, but nothing major. when you remove the center cap, theres that big whole between the lugs, i had to grind out the paint, and a little metal, maybe 1/32 of an inch, it took a while, but they're on, and that was on the rear, the front mounted up just fine.

depends on tire size if they will fit

Well Im leaning more to 17 or 18x9.5 so I would be using 275/40 for the 17s or 275/35 if I go with 18s. That sound about right?

only prob with that is that i have a feeling 18X9.5 is gonna be hard to find, but who knows

Did you have any trouble fitting those under the car? Any hammers or grinders involved?
