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?

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

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.
