Default 18X9.5 and 19X11 on 2001 Camaro question....

Is there anyone out there that is running a C6 vette wheel set-up that is 18X9.5 and 19X11 on a 1.2" drop on a 4th gen? If so I have three questions:

1) What was the back spacing you used? I think its around an 1/8th inch spacer but not 100% on that. (Not that I would ideally want to run a spacer)

2) Did you have a hard time tucking them with a tire that isn't a rubber band and not get any rub in the front wheel well or the rear quarter panel lip? (I don't want to roll the lip in the rear wheel well)

3) What tire size did you end up using?

If you have any input that would be awesome! This will make making the decision as to do 19's in the rear are worth the pain!

Thanks for the link. I have already found the wheels i want, i just need to know about the conflict, if any, the 19X11 will pose with a 1 1/4" drop and if i should drop down to 18X11 to accommodate the drop and still have a drivable sidewall on the tires. I already have a slammed (5/7 drop) hemi dodge ram that is a pain to drive bc of having 22's with a low profile tire.

Thanks a ton! I will contact him and see if he can lend a hand in getting me pointed in the right direction. That is actually one of the sets of wheels i am looking at doing. I ran across another set of wheels a couple weeks ago that i would forgo doing a staggered wheel combo. any thoughts on the Forgestar f14's? 18X9 and 18X11. gunmetal gloss
