wheel spec's
 
Does anyone know what the offset is for a 1999 C2? Also, does anyone know if wheels coming off a C4S or turbo will fit?

Sorry for the confusion guys. I meant to say aftermarket wheels. There's a guy selling a set of wheels that came off a C4S. 19"x8.5" front and 19"x11" rear. I was wondering if these would fit. What do you guys think?

Only with spacers...

I believe stock is 18x9 et 58 and 18x11 et 56

Im not 100% ont he fronts

The rear of the C4S or turbo will not fit as they stick out too much.

Spacers will only make it worse.

1999 c2 is 18x7.5 et50, 18x10 et 65, front turbo wheels will fit, not the rears.

whatever the offset for the aftermarket wheel is it should not exceed this spec:
18x8.5 Front ET40
18x11 Rear ET63
for a c2 this is pretty much maxed out

Will 18x11 fit with ET53 will fit with fender rolling?

I would say... yes, since the fenders are prob 10-12mm, the rolling will have to be pretty aggressive. the brand of tires will have alot to do with it, each brand has there unique width and will vary.
