Default 18x9.5? black C5 ZO6

i have the 18x10.5 black c5 zo6 rims in the back and i ordered the 18x9.5 for the fronts but when we tried to put them on they are hitting the spindle. the car is lowered two inches in the front only because i mount 27x10.5x16 at the track. what offset do you guys run to make the 18x9.5 fit in the front. please help

I thought those wheels are a 50 to 56 mm offset . . . shouldn't be an issue . . .

I never had a problem with mine, and I sold them to Madice, who has Sportlines on his Camaro and he had not issues . .

ssfast99, can you please check your BSing? I also thought the 18x9.5, 50-56mmBS and 18x10.5 50-53mmBS will work no problem. There isn't a difference for the front is there? Any help is greatly appreciated.

the tire shop said the fronts are 56mm so it should work. saturday i go back in to try and fit them the only reason we didnt earlier was because we were concerned by the looks and as soon as we mount the tires the rims are mine and we were going to possibly return them. i will let everyone know saturday how things go.

sorry to leave you guys hanging, the rims fit fine when we mounted them so everything looks good.
