Your going to be hard pressed to find these on a fbody,

i have these wheels on my c6, the problem is they are very big wheels, especially for the front.

20x12 in the rear and 19x10 in the front, oe sizes

fitting that kind of size on a fbody seems like a bit too much for those cars, fbodys are meant for 15-18, anything else looks a bit too odd imo. maybe it bc they were built back when the factory norm was 17s.

Heres my vette on cup wheels, and my fbody on 15,17 rts's

sorry for the dark pic.

The 5th gen Z28 wheels would not be bad either, despite them being 19s.

I wish that OE Wheels would make these in an 18 x 10.5 square set up for our cars with the proper backspacing/offset (NO spacers needed).

Precisely the reason I didnt get these wheels. The cup wheels are badass and look better than alot of aftermarket wheels, but the widest replica size( 18x9.5 40 mm offset) is about an inch too narrow for what I want to do. It would be perfect if they'd do a 18x10.5 with a 40mm offset so I could run a 295 tire all around.

I had though about running 4 OEM 19x10(40mm offset) front wheels with the machined face/silver port finish, but I just can't over the feeling that 19" wheels would be too big, a Trans Am can pull it off but not so much with a Camaro.

I'm thinking about running the 18/19 combo, I've seen a few cars running these sizes (not cup wheels though) and seem to look really nice

18/19 looks the best IMO! I've never seen those wheels on an f-body though.

Man! Do those look awesome! I think I just found a new option for mine. I was gonna buy my friends 5th gen stock wheels, the 20 inch ten spokes but these look even better.

oem front zr1/z06, don't know the offset. They bolt on with no spacers. No rubbing at all and I'm lowered on qa1 coilevers.

If you are able to peek behind the wheel, they will tell you right there.
I really love those wheels and would like to get some replicas.
