You need a mini tub in the rear, dont you?

I think there is quite a bit of modification to fit these wheels

Im pretty sure rear tubs and spacer for front and rear. But i could be wrong.

First question, are they C5 Z06 or C6 Z06? Originals or reproductions? The size and offset should be stamped/cast into the wheel mounting pad, so if you post up that information, that would help others help you.

Since all C5 and C6 wheels are medium to high-offset wheels, you'll need wheel adapters front and rear no matter what and probably mini-tubs in the rear like the earlier posts have said. If you have C6 Z06 wheels, a new subframe up front built for wider wheels/tires will be needed unless you're okay having the turning radius of a semi.
