Vette(s): 1985 Coupe-L98/Auto,Bright Red/Carmine.
1974 Coupe-L48/4speed, Medium Red Metallic/Black Deluxe.
There are adapters for that, and there are also direct-fit rims that look like the later rims, but with the correct off-sets for the early cars. Check with Mid-America, Bair's, or any of the Corvette parts vendors to see what they offer. The adapters might be a good deal, but then you'd have to buy the later style rims too, which might make the direct-fit upgrade a better choice.

Vette(s): 87 Red Coupe, not as pretty, had 213G miles, great running engine; got 20-21 around town, 27-28 on hwy; I got to drive a Vette, every day for 6 yrs. It was my first; so now I know what the fuss is all about. (Sold it 2015 for $3000, still ran great.)
I have an 87, which came with 16" wheels, but my wheels are 17s from a later year, maybe 90? They fit and work like they were made for it.
