this question has been asked about a million times. And if you actually think they will fit just look at the offset or width or bolt pattern lol

extremely to wide. i had posted the offsets in another thread last year and its close to if not more than twice the balts offset not to mention the fact that the bolt pattern is 5x4 3/4 where as the balt is a 5x110

so to give a blunt answer hell no they wont fit

you could probably get some kind of replica and just have it bored to fit your car anythings possible just costs money! or just get SS/tc rims

even gettin the pattern bored out wouldnt work. you would have to have a custom wheel made with a smaller offset. you would have probably over 6in stickin outta the fenders if you was to use some kinda adapter and spacer with the vette wheels. it just wont happen unless you have the money to get a completely custom set made and that wouldnt be cheap

Lmao. The tires would stick out a good 4 inches from the car. None the less, if you did manage to get the things on you might not ever have to worry about traction ever again. You should consider going to a custom wheel shop and have them make you something that would fit

Um yea thats why I said "if" you could fit zr1 wheels on our car those would be cool. I know they won't fit basically for the same reason of any other corvette rim. Bolt pattern is different and too "wide"
