Default Z06 Wheels: Direct Bolt-in?

I was looking at getting a set of these either off a Z06 or buying them from somewhere else. I think the sizes are 18x10.5 and 18x.9.5. Are the backspacing on them already set so they can do straight onto and F-body? And modifications that need to be done? Thanks

I run 18x10.5" Z06 wheels all around and have them wrapped with 275/35/18 Nitto NT 555s. I used a smaller spacer in the rear to give them enough room.

MRR and TYBYRNE, what offsets are you using for your wheels?

Ah, thank you Xsta. After I posted, I realized I should have just checked the "will this fit" thread.
