so im looking to spend my economic stimulus check on some wheels. i wanna get some corvette wheels. i know i need spacers but i dont exactly know what size, or if that depends on the wheel or what not.

the wheels i want are the ZO6 wheels that are 17 * 9.5 in the front and 18 * 10.5 in the back.

i saw that hawks sold a set of adapters that let you put fourth gen wheels on third gens, but i dont wanna buy some wheels (off ebay btw) and have them rub or stick way out of the wheel well.

these are the wheels

so.....my question is will these wheels fit, provided i have correct spacers or whatever?

Yes, you will need a 2" spacer. Spacers that large aren't cheap though.

I think its 2" all the way. Unless you are trying to compensate for wheels with staggered offsets.

Yeah, the spacers aren't cheap. Tim has those wheels in black, C6 Z06 with 2" aircraft grade spacers.
