looking to buy this setup: 18x9.5 (+56 mm offset) and 18x10.5 (+58mm offset)
255/35/18 up front and 305/45r-18 in back. the rear tires would be nitto drag radials (nt-555r). will those offsets work, and is the rear tire size too tall and/or the front tire too short? what size tires would you run on these size rims? this is for a 2000 camaro, by the way.

fronts will work. i test fitted the 18 x 9.5" C5 wheel with 285/35-18 on the wife's car. real close to the spindle, but fit. on the rear, i had to clearance the inner fenderwell on the front side with the same wheel. 305/45-18 is going to be really tall. with the sizes you want to use, it will cause ABS issues. you would need a 305/30-18 tire to keep the front/rear heights the same. you might be able to clearance the inner fenderwell enough to clear it.
