Default deep dish c6 zo6 wheels help

i want to order some deep dish C6 Z06 rims for my 2000 T/A from OE Wheels,I want to order the 18's up front &19's out back but I want to know which width(tire & rim) I can put on without using a BFH to get the wheels to fit? I know I will have to use a spacer or adapter but I'm hoping that's it I just don't want them to rub at all,thanks in advance

I think since you have a T/A and they have bigger inner-fenders than use Camaro guys, I think you may be able to get away with 18x10.5 in the rear and if you have to BFH, I would imagine it would be very little at the most cause I know some guys have put em on there car and not have to run or do a thing to there car and some come up and it sounded like they had to baiscally rebuild the car. From the things I've seen and have heard about, it's a car to car basis. I don't know what you can and can't put up front and be ok with cause I had no choice when I got my wheels so I'm running 17x9.5 all the way around. Hope maybe you get a better answer though.

i have those exact rims on my camaro and all i had to use was a 1/4" spacer in the rears, no BFH mod needed. and since TA i think have a little bit bigger inner fenders you might not even need a spacer, but looks wise you might want to use one anyways. they sit pretty far in without a spacer. check my pictures if your curious.

I'm running the same set-up, I may or may not have rear spacers I don't remember. The fronts and rears rub at a steep incline but otherwise normal driving doesn't effect them.

My fenders are beat in, bump-stops removed and fenders rolled though.
