I like the look of some of the newer vette rims, the like the c5 mosport rims, and the c6 z06 rims.
Was wondering if anyone put them on the early A-bodyies. I will be doing the f-body ls1 brake upgrade.

Not 64-67 info but I run base C6 wheels on a 71 El Camino with no fitment problems and my dad runs C5 thin spokes on a 68 Buick Skylark convertable with no problems either. 2 inch adaptor in front and 2.5 inch in the rear on both. I think C6 Z06 would be to wide for stock wheel wells

I am running Re-pop C6 18" rims on my '02 collector edition.

These are in "black" chrome and have held up very well for three years.

They are built with a much milder offset then the stock vette rims.
I also have a set of 17's on the Formula. I think they emulate the Z06 wheels?

Check out Wheel Replica's and OE Wheel.
I got both sets off eBay for super cheap. The ones on the yellow car were under a grand shipped and the red cars were less then 900 bucks WITH 275/40 Nexens mounted on them!

Anybody else lately fit newer Vette wheels to anything. I love the Z06 split 5 spokes.

for the front I custom made some 2" adapters, and the rear is a 5th Gen IRS.
