Since you have a 2002, if the rims are still the ones that came with the car, you have either 16's or 17's right now. if you have the 7-spoke rims, those are the 17's from the C7 package (color-keyed door handles, resonator, shorter throw on manny, better steering wheel, etc.), otherwise, they're 16's. So, as you said, if you get the right offset and so forth, 16's would fit fine. I had 16" steelies for winter for a while, and worked fine til they were more rust than steel.

Oh, it does add a lifetime supply of maple syrup and moose droppings as well.
