I know this topic has all but been "BEAT TO DEATH" but i am now "Reconfused" about wheel fittment regarding a C4 to C5 front brake Upgrade!
 
I am Upgrading the brakes on my 85 vette to c5 style and everywhere that I read, it says you have to use A-mold wheels like the 5 spoke ZR1 style. Is that the only wheel that will work? I had my heart set on a set of wheels that have the same specs except instead of 56mm offset they have a 54mm offset. the following link is the wheel I planned on buying!  ANY IDEAS OR INSIGHT ON THIS!!!

if you go into the handling forum, there is a post by lt1c4 right below yours that shows with a lot of pics the conversion. he goes thru a lot of detail and if you can't find the answer you might want to try sending him a PM.
