still searching for wheels.......

Post by buttnekkidnparadise »

In my quest to find the perfect wheel for me, I have come across Corvette rims.........I found this add in a local forum here in Hawaii...

One set of 15X8 ralley wheels, one set of 1984-86, one set of 1988/1989. 2 sets of ZO6 wheels, 3 or 4 sets of 1997 to 1999 wheels, 2000 to 2003 wheels, 1 set of limited edition 50th Anv. wheels. One New set of chrome ZO6 wheels, One new set of chrome 2005 wheels to fit C-5's. Make offers. One new set of chrome 22" to fit Early Navigators (2003 and 2004 are 6 lug) or Expeditions, or F150 Ford Trucks. Sold in sets only.

Will I be able to get any of these rims on my truck? My plan is just a 2 inch body lift and 30 inch tires.........any help will be greatly appreciated....I'm going to check out the rims in a couple of days...

width? offset?

Post by buttnekkidnparadise »

This is what the wheel looks like........

The offset looks right.....i think?

But the width is 8.5" for the front.......
9" for the rear.....

I was thinking of buying two fronts? Will this rub? Or will I have any problems at all?
Thanks guys........

don't forget the C5 wheels are different diameters for front and rear - 17's in front, 18's in rear.
