Default offset for new rims?

I'm thinking of purchasing a set of 18X9.5 and 18X10.5 C5 chrome Z06 rims from tomzwheels for my 02 z28. I would like the rear wheels and tires to set fluch with the fender. What is the offset that I need? Will I have to run spacers?

to make the rears flush with the fenders, yoll need about a +45 to +50mm offset. I dont think you can get the Z06s with those offsets. the front youll need about the same offsets for a flush fit. However I have +56mm offset on my front 18x9.5s and I think it looks nice. my rears are +58mm with a 5/16" spacer that makes it about +50mm.
