Precision Fit for 1988–2004 Corvette Models

This 17×9.5 OE Style C5 Z06 wheel is engineered to fit:

• 1988–1996 Corvette C4

• 1997–2004 Corvette C5

• 2001–2004 Corvette C5 Z06

Inspired by the factory wheels found on the legendary Chevrolet Corvette C5 Z06, this wheel maintains correct bolt pattern, hub bore, and offset specifications for seamless installation. No adapters. No guesswork. Just a direct-fit solution that preserves your Corvette’s factory geometry and driving dynamics.

With a 17×9.5-inch configuration, this wheel offers a wider footprint for enhanced grip and a more muscular rear profile. Whether you’re upgrading from stock C4 wheels or replacing worn-out C5 rims, this OE-style Z06 wheel transforms both aesthetics and road performance.

Aggressive Black Finish – Modern Performance Look

The gloss black finish provides a deep, performance-oriented appearance that pairs perfectly with both classic and contemporary Corvette color schemes. From Torch Red and Arctic White to Millennium Yellow and Electron Blue, black wheels add contrast, depth, and an unmistakably aggressive stance.

Beyond appearance, the finish is engineered for durability. A multi-stage coating process helps resist:

• Brake dust staining

• Corrosion

• UV fading

• Road debris damage

This ensures long-term visual appeal whether your Corvette is a weekend cruiser, daily driver, or track-day machine.

Built for Strength and Performance

This OE Style C5 Z06 wheel is manufactured from high-grade aluminum alloy using precision casting methods that meet or exceed OEM structural standards. Key performance advantages include:

• Improved rigidity under load

• Reduced unsprung weight compared to older factory designs

• Optimized spoke reinforcement for high-performance driving

• Balanced construction for smooth highway cruising

The 17×9.5 width allows for wider tire setups, typically accommodating 275-width performance tires depending on vehicle configuration. This translates to:

• Better cornering grip

• Improved stability under acceleration

• Enhanced braking traction

For drivers seeking sharper handling without compromising factory ride comfort, this wheel offers the perfect equilibrium.

OEM Styling Without OEM Pricing

Original Z06 wheels from early C5 models can be difficult to source and expensive in the resale market. This OE-style reproduction gives you:

• Factory-correct 5-spoke Z06 appearance

• Direct compatibility

• Modern manufacturing standards

• Competitive 2026 pricing

You achieve the classic Z06 aesthetic without paying collector-level OEM pricing.

Perfect for Restoration or Custom Builds

Whether you’re:

• Restoring a late-model C4 to factory-plus condition

• Updating a base C5 to Z06-inspired styling

• Replacing damaged or bent OEM wheels

• Building a blacked-out performance theme

This 17×9.5 black Z06-style wheel delivers both authenticity and visual impact.

Many Corvette owners choose to run staggered setups, pairing 17×9.5 wheels with wider rear options for an even more aggressive stance. If you’re planning a full wheel refresh, consider matching sets for balanced performance and cohesive styling.
