How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
Every gram of rotational mass on a supercar fights the acceleration, braking, and rotational inertia numbers the factory spent enormous engineering effort achieving. A forged wheel for the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition holds the OE strength rating at meaningfully less weight, which is a real, measurable performance gain rather than a cosmetic one.
The Chevrolet Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition runs a 5x120.65 bolt pattern, 70.3mm center bore, and a F: 19x10.0J wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is F 19x10.5J ET35 / R 20x12.5J ET70, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Chevrolet Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is F 20x11.0J ET30 / R 21x13.0J ET65 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Chevrolet Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition OE Wheel Specs
The 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition (Supercar) uses a 5x120.65 bolt pattern with a 70.3mm center bore. Factory wheels are F: 19x10.0J R: 20x12.0J.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Balances ride comfort with everyday drivability
- A commonly used size for this vehicle class, supporting parts and tire availability
- Maintains clearance for the factory suspension and brake components
- Provides stable, predictable handling across normal driving conditions
Flush Fitment
For a flush look, F 19x10.5J ET35 / R 20x12.5J ET70 is a commonly used starting point — clearance must be verified on a stock or mildly lowered Chevrolet Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
F 20x11.0J ET30 / R 21x13.0J ET65 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Decision Guide
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: F 19x10.0J ET43 → ~7.19″ F backspacing, R 20x12.0J ET79 → ~9.61″ R backspacing
- Flush: F 19x10.5J ET35 → ~7.13″ F backspacing, R 20x12.5J ET70 → ~9.51″ R backspacing
- Max: F 20x11.0J ET30 → ~7.18″ F backspacing, R 21x13.0J ET65 → ~9.56″ R backspacing
A Note on Clearance
Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Chevrolet spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Chevrolet Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.

Wheel Installation Reference: Torque, Thread & TPMS
Thread & Fastener: M12x1.5, conical-seat lug nut.
Factory Torque Spec: 136 Nm (100 ft-lb). Covers most Chevrolet passenger cars and crossovers on M12 studs.
TPMS: TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) has been federally mandated on all new light vehicles sold in the US since the 2008 model year. If your wheels use OE-style sensors, have them transferred or cloned to the new wheels at installation.
Tire Pressure: Always set tire pressure to the value on your vehicle's tire placard (driver's doorjamb or glovebox), not the max PSI printed on the tire sidewall — this is trim- and tire-size-specific and stays the same reference point when you switch to a different wheel and tire combination.
Reference data compiled from published OEM service specifications and cross-checked against independent repair sources; always confirm against your owner's manual or door-jamb placard before installation.
