I would like to find a campact spare wheel and tire that will fit over C6 zo6 brakes. I have 335 rear tires so the chance of me finding that in stock if I have a flat is slim. just a slim as finding a spare that will fit lol

GTO spares are pretty common. They look pretty cool too.

I know they do with the Z51 setup, not sure about the Z06. Tobin may know. You could also carry a spacer with the spare to push the wheel out enough. Not ideal, but since Vette's don't have spares, it is tough to find something that will clear.

Old Chevy astro vans had 20" spare wheel/tire on a space saver... not sure at all what type of caliper clearance you would have, but cheap JY try it and see in the right bolt pattern.

EDIT: I actually just made this comment from a memory of mounting a pair of them up on the rear of my camaro and doing some "ice" skating after work (tire shop). I actually can't find any information to back up my memory... it is also a HORRIBLE idea as well... please disregard LOL!
