Question Will this wheel fit a F-Body? PLZ HELP!

Seen these wheels that I ran across and I just had some fitment questions. Its made by Niche and they call it Venice. Size I was wondering about are 18x8.5 and 18x10 but the bolt pattern is 5x120 with a offset of 20. I know the right size for our cars is 5x120.65 but also seen F-bodys that had wheels with a bolt pattern of 5x120 on their car like the ADR M-sport n others. Will 5x120 fit or pushing it to much.

The 5x120 will fit but the problem your going to have is the offset. That 20mm offset is going to make the wheels stick way out and you may have issues with rubbing the wheel well up front when turning. Check out the sticky, 38mm is the smallest recommended:

The 18x9.5 come with the bolt pattern of 5x120.65 so couldnt you jus get a spacer for 19's to fit right?

Offset is width dependent...

The formula I came up with is:
Wheel width/2 - 3.5
Convert the answer to millimeters and thats the offset you need
