    About an inch was the thinnest the company I went with made them. Any less and you start to run into strength issues since you're basically bolting on a new set of lugs. Vette whees are already something like a 50ish offset IIRC, so you could run them with adapters and they would fit perfect.

    An inch is ~25mm so 20 is probably fine. I have heard of some eventually cracking though, not sure of why,but be careful where you buy them.

    adapters have grown on me just because i could swap to 5x114.3 bolt pattern and my wheel options skyrockets, but i would always prefer the correct set of wheels over adapters.

    Yea, the correct setup is always the best, good adapters are an alternative if you can't find what you want. Unless you're tracking the car a bunch, I'm not sure if any of the organizations like them.
