Yup they fit right on, i have the c5's on my car. Tires are a pain to pay for if your going with the 18s in the back.

sometimes depending on how wide the rims are they will hit the bump stops in the back, but you won't have to worry about that unless your gettin 11s in the rear

I have 11" in the rear and it sucks because my rear tires are getting slashed from when ever I driver over a bump the tire and fender hit.

I already got them. Cause I was told they would just go right on. I know i have to buy spacers for the rear 18" 275 40.....but with the 1/2 inch spacers anyone think i will have a problem with not enough threads for the lugs??

spacers aren't really a good idea anyway. They can do more harm than good.

Thanks for the input! I got them on this afternoon. i didn't need to get spacers, i just realized that when i jacked up the rearend that the wheel was dropping way more than it would when it was on the ground....i know..i'm an ***... but i did have to hone out the center of the wheel to fit around the hub....only on the rear. But after all the crap i got them on! Thanks for the help you guys are great

Only on 93-96 F-Bodies should you have to hone out the inside of the wheel... 97+ should be direct fit.
