Default found my new wheels c6 zr1 need help sizing?

well it looks like sterling silver c6 zr1 wheels,the pic shown below on the camaro has 4 front original 19x10 c6 zr1 wheels with stock 40mm offset i believe,they sell these wheels aftermarket in a 19x10 c5 offset of 56mm and 76mm.....which would fit better on 99 t/a???do you guys think gm ran spacers on this project?????they also sell these wheels in 18x8.5 with a 56mm and 40mm offset and 17x8.5 with 49mm offset,but i think i want the gm front 19's i just don't want to run into problems with spacers......opinions??????i think if i get factory ones they will be lighter for sure,here is the link to the buildup of this ls9 gm built zr1..........http://www.lsxtv.com/forum/mission-i...red-2809.html#

I like the new zr1s but IMO black looks better with those wheels

I think it will look good, a darker color would probably look good but with a blue a lighter color would look good also.

I'm not a fan of the new ZR1 wheels. They aren't horrible, but just seem to be lacking something. Maybe in chrome would look better but I dunno. They might have to grow on me. Just way too many spokes to clean brake dust out of.

someone on another site say its 40mm for a front zr1 wheel,well whatever it is i guess they did not have any problems mounting 4 front zr1 wheels on the gmpp zr1 camaro ,the tires they used was 285 30 19.......does anyone know where to get gm parts cheap?or does anyone know how much a sterling silver q6a 19x10 cost?

Ahhhhh ok... I couldn't quite put my finger on the color. I think the wheels and hood will look good. Can't wait to see pics of it.
