Yes they fit. Some space them out to sit flush with the fender but not necessary. The 295s I had on the set I had on my truck rubbed when I bolted on the z28. I didn't want to beat the inner fenders or anything so I just took them off.

You will probably need to cut the rear bump stop mounts off.
I had to do it on my DD V6 to get them to fit.
Jack the car up put it on jackstands.
Remove the bump stops then pie cut the bump stop mounts and use a 10lb sledge to pound them straight down.
Then take your grinder again to cut them off.
Cover the area with some rubberised under coating.
This takes about 15 to 20 minutes including bolting the tires on.

True, I've owned them, the offset is too high. But if you BFH the inner wheel wells and raise it and lower it from the rear. The bump stops shouldn't hit.
