The 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 is mid-cycle, with the platform mature and the widest selection of aftermarket wheels designed specifically for C7 geometry. Bolt pattern: 5x120mm. Hub bore: 70.3mm. Stock: 18x8.5-inch front ET+56, 19x10-inch rear ET+56, 245/40ZR18 and 285/35ZR19 Michelin Pilot Super Sport. The 2016 model marks the year C7 fitment data reached community consensus — the ET+48 to +60 front and ET+48 to +60 rear window on 18 and 19-inch is confirmed across hundreds of documented builds. Front 355mm Brembo six-piston: 94mm minimum caliper clearance. The 2016 C7 Z06 being well into its run also means big-brake cross-fits are more accessible: the Z06 carbon-ceramic six-piston front (380mm) requires 20-inch minimum and 98mm caliper clearance for C7 base owners upgrading to Z06 brakes. Widest confirmed front tire on base C7 at stock alignment: 275/35ZR18 at ET+50. Widest confirmed rear: 305/30ZR19 with -1.2 camber. Most popular 2016 C7 community fitment: 19x9.5-inch front and 20x11-inch rear mirroring Z06 wheel dimensions, running ET+52 front and rear with 265/35ZR19 and 305/30ZR20. Grand Sport fitment note: Grand Sport uses wider Z06 bodywork and Z06-spec 19/20-inch wheels — confirm body style before selecting a fitment template from community forums.
