Default Torque thrust II help

Need some help here. First off i have a daily driver 99 Camaro SS, and after i get off this damn deployment i would like to purchase well lets just say certain nice things for my car. One of which is going to a sweet set of Torque thrust II rims. NOW heres the delimma im running into, i cant seem to locate any specs for the stock wheel. or even find threads or posts regarding people who have 99-02 camaros, that they have planted some Torque thrusts on. im hoping that possible someone out there has some insight on the matter (basically the offset i need to get, if im going to need spacers anything like that ) as of right now, im running 17's with 275 wide tires. any help would be greatly appreciated.

not sure what you want to know, but I had TTII's on my SS. Fronts were 17x9.5 with stock sized F1s and rears were 17x11 with Hoosier 335/35 DRs. No spacers, just a bfh to get the rears to fit

I have Torque Thrust 2's on my 2000 SS. Just swapped on a week ago.
17x9.5 fronts (7" backspace) 275/40/17 Sumitomo HTRZ
17x11 rears (7.75" backspace) 315/35/17 Sumitomo HTRZ
Lowered with Strano springs.
My wheels and tires were a "bolt on and drive" thing.
I did not have to do anything to make them fit.
They do not rub anywhere on inside of tire/wheel.
They do not rub anywhere on outside of tire/wheel.
No spacers, no panhard bar adjustments, no nothing...

In fact, although it's a sore subject on this particular site, I also have a spare pair of 17x9.5 TT2's with Nitto 315/35/17 drag radials and they fit (both the wheel and the car) PERFECTLY as well.
