Hey guys,

I need an opinion on what to do...I could buy a nice pair of C5 thin style spoke rims off of a 2000 Corvette, but they will have the wrong offsets and the wheel will sit a little further into the wheel well. Its a good deal, and I figured I would get a pair of affordable rims for when I have to get new tires (within a year or so).

Should I buy these rims, or should I wait and try to find aftermarket reproduction c5 rims that have the correct offset? Its really hard for me to pass this deal up, but i'm not sure if I want to have to deal with the whole offset/spacer situation....What would you guys do??? I keep going back and forth on what to do...Thanks!
