Default Those of you that are running 18X10.5 Z06 rims with 58mm offset

Did you have to beat in your fenderwell or roll the lip or use spacers? I can get a sweet deal on some 18X10.5's but they are the 58mm offset and I dont want to have to do anything to mod my inner fender or outter lol. If you have pics I'd like to check them out. I have 17X9.5 on right now and will keep those in the front. Just dont want it to look bad having 54mm up front and 58mm in back, yeah i know whats 4 mm? lol. Thanks for any help.
PS If you went with a spacer what size did you use and did you get longer wheel studs?

I did both. To fit the BFH is needed, but for better appearnce ran a 5/16" spacer, which requires longer lug studs too.

I got mine from a Chevy dealer. 3rd Gen IROC's used them. They weren't expensive.

I did the exact same thing as well on my last T/A.

I got my spacers off of Ebay for $20 shipped.
