I was wondering about putting C6 wheels on a camaro. The wheels are 18x9.5+57 up front with a 275x40 tire up front, and 18x10.5+58 with a 285x40 tire out back. Since the offsets don't fall on the chart, what would need to be done to make them look flush? Whould I also have to roll the fender lip and use the BFH. Just a little confused which would have to be done.

Tires, are all wrong IMHO, 275/35ZR18 front and 295/35ZR18 rear . . . the side walls you state are too tall.

Looking at the same size on my slightly lowered 95 LT1. Will the sizes mentioned above fit without rolling the fender? Would it require the BFH mod since it tucks in so far?

18x10.5 58 mm offset Z06 with 305's-315's (GSD3) in rear (I know gsd3's run wider)
(looking at tomzwheels)
How hard is it to get those to fit, would it be better to go with something such as a 295?

I have 18x10.5's with 315's in the back, i was wondering if 19x10.5's with 305's would fit without a problem. I'm pretty sure they will fit but, while im posting, i'd might as well ask, will 18x9.5's with 265's fit in the front?

I'd run a 275/35ZR18 upr front, and again offsets . .

I just ordered a set of four 18x9 wheels. I'm trying to decide between 245/45/18s and 275/40/18s. TireRack said the latter would be a tight fit up front. Should I just go with the 245's?

I just ordered some Boyd Rebels yesterday. 9.5's in front and 11's rear. Boyd recommends 7 3/4 BS for the rears but that to me is only a +32mm offset. Is this correct, I don't want them to stick out past the wheel well.
