the vintage wheel works wheels will work with the ats spindles if you run a spacer to get the rear face of the wheel away from the brake calipers... that would mean ordering the front wheels with more backspacing, and the getting ATS spindles with longer studs....
to determine the required thickness of the spacer, buy the spindles (with long studs) and your rear wheels first! this will give you the opportunity to measure and test what thickness spacer is required to clear the brakes... and then order the spacers and front wheels accordingly...
this will not adversely affect ANY steering geometry! and is the cheapest and best way to get your car handling.... the lower price of the C5 based brakes almost pays for the ats spindles... and you can retain all of your front suspension as is... all you need then is to install a proper steering box and you are good to go
