Whats the best Offset for a 18X10.5 Z06 Wheel to work on a vert? I dont want to bang up my fenderwell nor do I wanna roll my lip so I'm asking what offset will work using a 18X10.5 wheel with a 295/35/18 on it?
Next question will the 18X10.5 and 17X9.5 work without messing up my ABS? I will have 275/40/17's on the front.
Last question where the hell can I find a set of chrome Z06 in the 18X10.5's

Probably the best offset for the 17x9.5 is +54. The best offset for 18x10.5 is +53 or +50. This can guarantee you won't have to roll the fender lip, but it's not a guarantee you won't have to massage the inner wheel well. Also not all the cars are perfectly centered. You might want to check your car now, especially if it's lowered. If it's not centered, you may need an adjustable panhard bar to recenter it.
With 275/40/17 front and 295/35/18 rear tires your ABS will not have any problems.
For the wheels I recommend you call Todd@Prodyno (sponsor here). State you are from LS1Tech and he'll give you a good deal. His number is 480-967-5550.

If you're not lowered then the +53's will work great. In either case you should not have to BFH with the +53.
