Default offset ?

I just had a quick question. I was thinkin about ordering sum c6 wheels in the 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 combo and was wondering if 56mm offset for the front and 54mm for the back was the correct offset for a f body lowered with strano springs. does anyone have any pics of 18 x 10.5s in the back with this offset or a better one. I dnt want the wheels to stick out past the fenders . A little is ok just not to much.

And yes i did read the sticky just wanted sum more opinions. Thanks

They'll be fine. Might need a touch of BFH in the rear wheel well, but I doubt it.

Here's a little trick I learned before I started working for Discount.

go to this link, click on wheels in the center. Input your vehicle and search. look at the wheels that come up in the size you want and the offset will be suggested. If the wheels you are looking for fall within the ranges you see you should be ok.
