Will these fit my 02 Z28 w/out any mods? 99 C5 vette wheels:
17x8.5 fronts are 58mm offset
18x9.5 rears are 65mm offset

What size tires are reccomended front/rear so that the sidewalls match or at least look similar. I dont want "fat" sidewalls on front & "skinny" sidewalls on rear. Anybody know what looks good? And fits good?

Thanks Guys!

those offsets are most likely going to be too much inward. might wheel fitment book from OE Performance Replica wheels shows these offsets to work.

17 x 8.5 +50mm offset
18 x 9.5 +50-57mm offset

i did put a set of their C6 replica wheel in 17 x 9.5 with +53-54mm offset on a 2000 formula all the way around for a customer. so, i know that offset will work as well on the front.

to have the sidewalls match, or look similiar, will require the tires to have different overall diameters. this will throw the tire speeds from front to rear off and can cause an ABS error.

i used 255/45-17 and 285/35-18 to keep both tire diameters the same.
