Default 18x10 fronts 47mm / 18x12 rears 28mm will they fit?

Exactly like the title states. I read the wheel fitment sticky but I know there are ways to make some wheels work. So given the numbers above and the fact that I have a stock suspension 98 z28 with only LCA's what extent am I going to have to go through to make these work.

Thanks
Adam

idk how much this will help you but, i have 18x10.5 in the rear, on stock suspension and didnt have to make any modifications, so i would think that since you are about 1.5 inches wider than my wheel, you may only need a spacer to make it work. and maybe a hammer to fix the rest of the rubbage. deff a roller fender too.

and from what ive read on here, the front has more room than the rear as far as wheel space so you are fine up there.

There is a member here that has a 12" rear rim. Maybe he/she will chime in on this

I have a feeling the rear offset is going to put my tire well outside the fender line.

If you narrow the rearend 1" per side and mini tub the inner wheelwells the 18" x 12s" with a +28 offset will fit fine.

IMO, a 18" x 11" with a +44 to +50 offset will fit with a lot less work!

The rear tire will definitly stick out of the wheel well . . . by over an 1" . . .

The fronts, not sure . ..

Fronts will probably be ok but the rears will stick way out. You would have to get your rear end narrowed.
