General Motors (GM) offers the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray with four new 20-spoke wheel options in a staggered 19-inch front and 20-inch rear application.

  • Bronze forged aluminum
  • Bright machined-face forged aluminum
  • Gloss Black forged aluminum
  • Carbon Flash-painted forged aluminum with red stripe (70th Anniversary)

However, the most significant additions to the C8 wheel lineup are the specialty wheels on the 70th Anniversary Edition Stingray and Z06. Specifically, the 70th Anniversary wheels sport red center caps and a red strip around the rim. 2023 is also the first model year for the high-revving Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Moreover, the Z06 gets eight options of its own, per GM Authority. The options cover two styles: the popular Spider and exclusive five-spoke carbon fiber wheels. In addition to the two types, the Z06 wheels are available in eight finishes. 

  • Black
  • Titanium Satin
  • Titanium Satin Graphite
  • Titanium Machined 
  • Tech Bronze

The C8 Chevrolet Corvette has 19, 20, and 21-inch aluminum wheels in several different spoke patterns. Of course, 2023 Chevrolet Corvette shoppers can opt for wheels from previous model years, as each option shares the model’s five-bolt pattern. 

Beyond the 2023 model, the upcoming 2024 Corvette will offer a new pattern. For 2024, the ‘Vette gets a new five-split-spoke wheel design in similar colors to past models. Further, past models’ five-bolt 120mm wheels will fit the latest model, like the 2020 Corvette’s multi-spoke wheels. Of course, fans don’t have to stick to the OEM wheels from GM. Instead, many owners outfit their ‘Vettes with Vossen, Avant Garde, or Forgeline wheels in staggered sizing.  

What size are the new Corvette wheels?

The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray wears staggered 19×8.5-inch front and 20×11-inch rear wheels. However, the more aggressive, track-focused Z06 rides on wider 20×10-inch front and 21×13-inch rear wheels. 

What size tires are on the 2023 Corvette?

The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray rides on staggered front and rear tires as with the model’s wheels. Up front, the C8 Stingray model wears 245/35ZR19 tires. In the rear, the 20-inch wheels have 305/30ZR20 tires. 

Of course, tire sizes and compounds are best used in purpose-specific capacities. For instance, some Corvette owners will ditch the factory rubber in favor of drag slicks for maximum traction at the strip.
