I know every1 is gonna think I'm a dumbass for asking this question but what would u have to do to get C5 Corvette Z06 rims to fit on my 03 Cavi
***Looking for a BLUE 03+ STOCK cavi wing pm me if ya got one you wanna sell***
from what I can tell, they are a 5x120.7 lug pattern, so they won't fit.

I know they wouldnt work on it right now. My question is, if I would do any and all mods neccessary to get them to fit what mods would those be?

well, there's re-drilling the hub/bearing assembly for that lug pattern and getting the new lugs put in, new brake rotors and calipers, and modifying the knuckles so the calipers could be bolted to them. you'd have to do a rear disc brake conversion, and hope that whatever you used would allow you to keep your e-brake.
Vettes run a pretty wide tire too, so I think you'd still have a hard time running those rims even if you got them on the car.

get a whole new suspension setup front and rear because the width of the tire will hit the strut. unless you run like a 2 inch spacer.

what you have to do is get a set of rims made for YOUR car. the amount of money you spend modding your suspension to make it fit, is not worth it
I was just going to post the same link ^^
If you buy a 3" wheel adapter 5x100 - 5x4.75 (I think that's the vette bolt pattern) you should be able to fit them with some 90mm blister flares and a lot of trimming of the fenders.
It could definitely be done, though.
You would deffinately want to go widebody after 3" spacers....

you would have to get the wheel hub from a corvette i believe, and then you would have to modify the suspension because the wheel will hit the inside of the wheel-well. good luck

to answer your question short and sweet NO ! 18x10's (or whatever they are cuz i dont have my hollender book in front of me) will not work at all or ever, u cant use the Corvette hubs either even though some years are the same lug pattern the whole Vette set up is totaly diff, if your gonna swap or mix it up make sure the wheels will fit to the car and do a lil research on them (ie. Hollender wheel interchange manual)

Stop telling people no.
And Joker, get your siht straight. A 3" wheel adapter/spacer will make these wheels work with some fender work (cutting a fender and riveting on blister flares is not a huge job). You don't need to do these retarded hub swapping / suspension modding / brake reworkingideas that so many people have. That's rediculous and ignorant.

Look at the Silvia community... you think their cars are made for an 18x10 +7 rear wheel? Crazy fitments are common on those cars. They're just blessed with the 5x114.3 (5x4.5 for the American set...) bolt pattern.
z06 wheels are also rear wheel drive setup so the offset on them is crazy compared to a fwd wheel, so even with the modded lug patern they are gonna stick out like 5 inches, and if you like your car to look like it has training wheels on it invest your money , but if ya do it i wanna see the pics, it will be worth the laugh
