Default HP EVO wheel????

Ok so I have finally decided that these are the rims that I want to get but Im not sure where to get them from. Ive searched around but all the places seem kinda shady or dont have the sizes Im looking for. Im looking for 18x9.5 for the rear(basically I want 9.5s for the rear) and maybe 18x9's for the front. So far I only noticed that 9.5's only come on the 19's, do they only come in 19's. For those with the 9's how do they look from the back. Also Ive got a red car and Im not sure what color to go with Im thinking the Hyper Light or Chrome, anybody have crome ones on their f-bod. Also whats the rim width on my 02 SS LE.
Please I need help open to any suggestions of sizes that you think will work.

These are 18X9 all the way around in hyperdark. As far as I know the only 9.5 wide are the 19" rims. A lot of people go with staggered- so you could always put those on back and the 18X9 on the front, it would still look pretty sweet!
here's a shot from the back (with 275/35/18's)

here's a side shot.

www.woodandwheels.net has the HP's. I'm also considering the EVO's, but I also like the Stern ST1 wheels in gloss black found on woodandwheels.net.

Heres the responce I got from the guy selling the wheels.

The person that told you that these wheels in a 5x120 bolt pattern won't fit
your car, he doesn't know about wheels.
1- your car comes with 12x1.5 studs
2- the wheels come with 14mm holes for studs
3- this means that you have enough space for 5x120 bolt pattern
4- see pictures of wheels on cars, see attach...
5- I have no chrome, hyper light is bright silver

One of the pictures he attached is 9balls annversary edition . Is this info correct? About the bolt patterns? I dont want wheels that are not safe on my car .

technically they fit up there just fine, but not perfectly. these are 5x120 and our wheels are 5x120.65..
so yes it will fit, but i wouldnt recommend it. if you are buying the wheels, ask him to throw in the 'hub centering rings'. not sure if he charges for them though, but they shouldnt cost more much than 20$

Im not going to buy the wheel if its not safe .. Im just not meant to have wheels I guess. First I wanted Cragar 230 series and they are impossible to get now since being disconinued. Then I wanted Privat Profil Silvers and they are now impossible to get . (120 day backorder). Now this wheel dont bolt up right . Is there any wheel in chrome , 18X9 , big lip and not cheesy ? Please tell me there is ?
