18X12 wheels?
So I've got the opportunity to buy a set of 18X12 vette rear wheels ($100 for both) but don't know it they'll fit. The lug patterns are the same but I've never seen 12 in wide wheels on a 5th gen. I want to run 315s on them and they would only be used to drive to and from the drag strip and to race. Will they work or are they too wide? Keep in mind I am at stock ride hight.

No, they won't work, the offsets will be all wrong

I'm running 18x11 rears with a 48mm offset and 315 drag radials. They are dead even with the rear fender and have the minimum clearance I would feel comfortable running on the inner fender well.

Sorry...LOL should have said its not a gen 5.... just saying you need to know the offsets before making a decision and there are some aftermarket vette wheels with closer to center offsets
