Offsets are different, lug pattern is the same.
If they are GM C5 wheels made for the Vette, I would make sure to test fit them first.
If they are C5 'style' wheels made for the F-Body, they will fit without a problem.

As far as I know the replicas you see on eBay will, that's what I got on my bird. They can fit on any year Firebird or Camaro from 93-02. You can kind of see mine in my sig, but here's a little better picture:
http://www.blindeyed.com/car/01.bmp
I got mine off eBay, as most people do. Got the deal that came with 2 18in x 9.5in for the rear, and 2 17in x 8in for the front. Got those sizes because they're the same that the Corvette comes with, and kind of thought it would be better to go that route. Plus, I didn't want to get 18's in the front, because I'm not a fan of huge rims, and plus the turning radius already isn't that great.
BTW, the offset for mine was:
Front: 56mm offset
Rear: 65mm offset
And they fit like a charm, so I would recommend making sure if you get some, that the offsets are close to that.

i love those rims and i want them so bad but i want to do more performance right now then looks..Did yo uget chrome or polished blindeyed? Also how would they look on my car?
Also if i ever did get those rims would i need new tires? Im guessing so because on the tire it says not to mount larger than 16" rim..tired and rims are a pretty pricey upgrade if i had to do tires so id probably do that down the road

Mine are polished. Wasn't about to pay a couple extra hundred for some bling bling that i don't want/need. Yeah, your current tires wouldn't be able to fit. I had to but 4 new tires, 245's in the front and 275's in the back. I think they would look sweet on your car.

I think polished looks as good as chrome and lasts longer.
As long as they are maintained well.
