I did read through the sticky above so now I am looking for personal experience, it seems like some do and some don't have rear clearance issues. Car is a 2000 WS6.
I have my mind set of the OE Wheels C5 deep dish 18x10.5 for the rear seen here- http://www.oewheelsllc.com/Wheels_3/...Wheel-chrome_3
The sticky says any above a 53mm offset with a 315 tire will need the inner fender hammered. These are 56mm. If you are running them did you have to hammer or roll the fender? I have an adjustable panhard bar and the will be lowered, most likely Strano or Hotckis springs.
The package of 4 they have for this wheel has 17x9.5 in the front.. but I would like 18"s in the front too, I was looking at the 18x9.5 and they have a 54mm... any issues with these? According to the sticky it should be fine. Here is the link- http://www.oewheelsllc.com/Wheels_3/...wheel-chrome_2
Just double checking before I order. Thank you.

I have the 17/18 combo in a c6 wheel. Same offset. I had to use a hammer out back it rubbed still but I don't have an adjustable phb and I'm lowered. I ended up getting eibach hub centric 15mm spacers and studs for all 4 corners. It brought my offset to +41 in the rear and +39 in the front. No rubbing and the wheels still don't stick out. I run a 295/35/18 in the back

Do you know what your off set was? What wheels? Thanks.

Does anybody know how much work it would take to make c6 replica wheels fit on the rear of my 2000 trans am? They are 19x10 with a 65mm offset. Also a link to a good how to forum for the BFH process. I also heard a 10mm adapter or spacer would work. But would the wheels stick out too far then?
