Default 2000 Camaro SS - wheel fitment question.

The particular wheels I am looking at are 18's.

Specs of the front wheels:
Size: 18x9
Offset: +35mm
Lip size: 2.75"
Backspacing: 6.38"
Centerbore: 73.1mm

Specs of the rear wheels:
Size: 18x10.5
Offset: +20mm
Lip size: 4.25"
Backspacing: 6.54"
Centerbore: 73.1mm

My brakes are all stock and my height is stock. I will run 295/35R18 tires all around, maybe run something wider like 305/35R18 in the rear later down the road.

I want to know if I am going to be running into any trouble running this setup as far as fitment goes. It's going to cost about $1200 to get everything together and I would like to be sure I won't be wasting my time and money on it if it doesn't fit.

Thanks!

EDIT: Also would like to know if anyone has heard of or experienced any trouble with our cars using 5x120 pattern as opposed to the correct 5x120.65, the wheels will be 5x120. I have read some online threads about this, and some say it's safe, but I would much rather have experienced opinions on this!

295 sounds wide for the front. They are staggered wheels anyways, why not just run a 275 or 285 up front just to be safe? 295 could also cause hydroplane issues if it's an all season car.

The 35mm front offset on the 9" wheel will likely stick outside the fenders.
A 40 or 45 would be better. JMO

I know, old thread, but this is the exact same question I had. Will the +20mm offset work on our cars with an 18x10.5 rear?

Bump. I really hope someone can answer this question for me! I really want these wheels but I need to know if I am going to have to do anything besides the BFH mod. Again, can I run 18x10.5 with a +20mm offset with only the BFH mod? Thanks to anyone who can help me out here!!
