Default Will theses fit on without any mods?

Alright so i think that ive found the rims i wanna go with... but i dont know if they will fit my z28 without doing some mods.. id like to avoid anything extra if possible.. lol.. and my other question, with my mods, am i gonna be getting any traction with these on the street?? lol.. or should i be going with 18x10.5 in the rear?? what is your guys opinion on the 19x10 rears? do you think they look too big on an fbody??

here are the rims im talking about

The 19X10 with the 65 mm offset will need a spacer to fit. The 18x8.5 will fit fine, but I would not use such a skinny wheel for the rear.

Also keep in mind the bigger the wheel the less sidewall so less traction off the line and (generally) a bit rougher ride.

Not to mention 19's would probably make the brakes look really small
