Wheel good question

Would C5 Corvette rims have the same spacing so as to fit on an Alero?

I believe the offset on those is around 55+ ... ours needs to be between 35-45 so no.

The best OEM rims that fit Alero IMO are the Grand Prix GTP 17 inch ones.

You would need wheel adapters/spacers. About 1.5" if you use 4 front wheels but definitely doable. The offset on them makes the outside of the wheel in just about the same position as stock, but they're 8.5"/9.5" (Z06 is an inch wider I think) so that needs to be compensated for.

I have C5 mags on my Beretta...

the fifteen seconds that it took me to find this was a HELL of a lot longer than the almost hour it took you to get a response...what were you looking for, offset, so search that, I told you like 3 days ago that it was the most recent thread about it, does today look like 2010 i didn't think so, it wouldn't be quite so damn annoying that I have to show you the thread to view if I hadn't already told you the exact thread to look at to find the information that you needed
here is the thread
