Revive the iconic silhouette of your 1965 Chevrolet Corvette (C2) with a Direct-Bolt Knock-Off Wheel & Tire Package featuring 1" Whitewall Radial Tires. This isn’t just about looks — it’s a turnkey upgrade that fuses authentic factory styling with modern performance, so your dream restoration or show car can roll out confidently and reliably.

Authentic looks, modern performance

Designed to capture the classic knock-off aesthetic, this complete package delivers a show-quality replica that’s virtually indistinguishable from the originals once installed. The wheels and tires are engineered with input from Corvette restoration experts and NCRS judges, ensuring factory-correct detailing without compromising today’s ride and safety standards. The result is a period-correct appearance that won’t sacrifice everyday drivability.

Direct-Bolt convenience you’ll actually notice

Skip the hammering and custom fabrication. Each wheel uses a patented direct-bolt adapter system that threads to your hub and bolts directly on, delivering a secure, precise fit with a clean, authentic look. This means faster installation, fewer headaches, and a safer, more predictable mounting process compared to traditional knock-off setups.

What’s included — a complete, ready-to-run package

  • (4) Direct Bolt Knock-Off Wheels – 15x6
  • (4) 1" Whitewall Radial Tires (mounted & ready)
  • Knock-off style spinners
  • Center caps & anti-theft pins
  • Lug nuts & complete installation hardware
  • Installation instructions

Fitment details you can trust

Specifically tailored for the 1965 Corvette C2, the package features 3.625" backspacing to align with OE geometry and proper brake clearance for the original-style calipers. Some aftermarket caliper configurations may require spacers, but the design is engineered to meet or exceed factory specifications for proper fit and performance with contemporary radial tires.

Why this package matters for your Corvette project

  • Classic whitewall aesthetics with the reliability and longevity of modern radial tires — the best of both eras for your mid-year Corvette.
  • Ease of installation vs traditional knock-offs thanks to the direct-bolt adapters and included hardware.
  • Show-ready finish designed with NCRS-informed detailing — you’ll get the authentic look without the guesswork during judging or car-show preparation.
  • Improved driving dynamics versus original bias-ply setups, thanks to modern radial tires that deliver better grip, steering response, and tread life.

Ideal for these use cases

  • Restorations seeking an authentic C2 Corvette presence with modern-day reliability
  • Show cars and weekend cruisers that benefit from a flawless display and dependable performance
  • Owners upgrading from worn knock-offs or steel wheels to a complete, ready-to-install solution
  • Collectors aiming to preserve the period look while enjoying safer, more comfortable drives

What makes it different from other options

Unlike incomplete kits or purely cosmetic replicas, this package combines an authentic knock-off appearance with modern radial tires and a direct-bolt installation system. The result is a turnkey solution that respects the Corvette’s mid-1960s character while delivering improved ride quality, predictable handling, and easier maintenance. The wheel design and tire choice were developed with real restoration guidance and show-judge feedback in mind, ensuring you don’t have to compromise on authenticity to enjoy today’s road performance.

Care, maintenance, and practical tips

To preserve the whitewall aesthetic, wash with mild soap and water and avoid harsh solvents. Regularly inspect lug nuts, anti-theft pins, and center caps, especially after road trips or garage storage. If you’re swapping to aftermarket calipers or upgrading suspension components, verify backspacing and clearance ahead of time to determine whether spacers are needed. With proper care, these wheels and tires will maintain their showroom-ready look while providing a smoother, more confident drive.

Ready to restore and roll — the right choice for your 1965 Corvette

With the C2 Corvette Direct-Bolt Knock-Off Wheel & Tire Package, you get the best of both worlds: the unmistakable, era-appropriate whitewall appeal and the confidence of modern radial tires, all delivered in a complete, install-ready package. It’s the thoughtful, high-precision upgrade that Corvette enthusiasts have been waiting for — authentic styling, straightforward installation, and real-world performance, wrapped into a single, cohesive solution.
