C6 Rims on 67, 68, 69 Camaros...do they fit?

[dafabricata]

Does anyone know if the rims from a C6 corvette (18X8.5 Front----19X10 Rear fit a 67, 68, 69 camaro? Would spacers be needed? Clearance issues? I know the rear will need to be tubed a bit to fit, but what about Front fender clearance if the car is lowered 1.5"-2"?

Does anyone have these rims on their car?

Pictures would be nice!!

I plan on doing the front and rear suspension, brakes, and wheels first.

First and foremost I want the car (67 Camaro) to have the right stance, great handling suspension and awesome braking.

I will post in the Braking forum on what is good and Affordable.
As well as the suspension.
I anyone has ideas they would be greatly appreciated!!!

I was thinking C5 or C6 suspension and brakes.
Help Please.....

There are some pics on this site of C5 rims and I have been told that both C5 and C6 can fit with adapters. Spacers won't work on anything over ~1/2"

Right now I have C5 wheels (17x8.5/245/45/17 front and 18x9.5/275/40/18 rear) on my 69 Camaro with 2" adapters. No rubbing or any other issues. I just got my C6 wheels and tires (18x8.5/245/40/18 front and 19x10/285/35/19 rear) but I'm a ways out on fitting them because somehow a weekend engine swap turned into a year of spending way to much and the car being torn apart. I think I need a shrink!!!

Where did you get the adaptors and how much did they cost?

65 a piece kinda sticks out in my mind but I really don't remember. It was early 2001 when I had them made. The place was local here in Denver - it was Performance Wheel & Tire. I don't know how the company is anymore, I stopped dealing with them a long time ago.

Are ya using 2in both front and back.....??

[2yellow69]

Yes. With the new wheels I'll probably be OK in the front. Because the new rear wheels are 1/2" wider I might need something else.

I like that, it looks cool. I wonder what they would look like on a Monte. Hmmm...... I'll have to do some photochopping.
