Default 18x12 and 19x12 question

Ive searched and searched but Ive still got questions. My first question is about the 18x12 zo6 rims offered by tomzwheels. WHat will the +64mm mean on a Camaro? Will they stick out way past the fender? If so how much? Also what's the biggest tire that will fit on this rim and how far will it stick out past the well?
As for the 19x12's who all makes tires for this rim? Ive only seen the supercar F1's and they cost a pretty penny.
For my last question, who makes the widest corvette rims availible? Been looking for some 17x13+ or 18x2.5+

Thanks

I run the TOMZ Zo6 18x12s and they will bolt up and not stick out at all. The widest tire that will safely fit is a 345. It will take ALOT of hammering, cutting, rolled lips, and massaging to get them in and not rub at all. I've done it and am lowered 2" but I just ordered mini tubs so I can go wider and lower in the back.

I'm having a wide body kit made so I'm trying to find the perfect size to fill in the new wells I will have. How big do you plan on going?
