What are you asking and with respect to which C6 wheels - standard C6 or Zo6?

Will the wheels work without adapters? No.
Will they rub? I'd ask your vendor. I would think with properly sized adapters standard C6 wheels would probably be okay. Z06's won't work out back without a minitub, and the front may be tight. Again, I'd ask your vendor.

Wrong offset/backspacing. Have you tried searching on any of this?

For fit on the front you'll need to talk to DSE/AME for their experience and end up with spacers in the 1.75" to 1.875" range.

For the back end, you'll need to have minitubs and an appropriate spacer in the 1.75" to 2.00" range. Offset can be determined from Ebay ads (they often list offset specs) then go here for an explanation how to go from offset to back spacing http://www.skulte.com/adapterfaq.html.

https://lateral-g.net/king/ Payton is a cool dude...betting he'd point you in the right direction. You're going to need wheel some big honking will adapters I can guarantee you that unless you want to run an over width rear end. Your still going to need them up front regardless.
