Well I put the cart before the horse again. I have a 1997 coupe and wanted a set of cool wheels and hit ebay. I ended up buying a set of TSW rims that are front 19x9.5 with a 45mm offset and rear 20x10 rears with 40mm offset. The ebay store selling them said that they were for a C5 and so does TSW's website. Anyone see any problems I may run into. The "other" vette site suggested 245/35/19 front and 285/30/20 for the rear. Please calm my nerves if I have notging to worry about on this combo! I know that Foose wheels use a similar offset if I am not mistaken. Anyone have pics of their Vette with similar offsets?
 
Those recommended sizes should work OK. Your speedo will still be OK because of where the sensor is located. If you compare OD (call a competent tire dealer) with the recommended sizes above with your OE sizes they will be close enough. Do it and enjoy the new look!
