18x10 wheels please help i searched and it didnt help

I am looking into getting wheels for my 1994 z28 and I like the 18x10 size. What backspacing and offset is needed? Can you get them for the front and back without haveing to beat anything or without them rubbing? Please help. Thanks.

you can get 18x10.5 in either zo6 or y2k rims

and you can get 18x9.5 for the front to prevent rubbing, 10's or 10.5's out front would probably rub depending on the size tire

You have to decide whether or not you want to look good (18's) or put more rubber down to the ground (10"-11") Trying to pull off both isn't the smartest thing to do...

i have 18x10 all the way around with 275 front and 295 rear. you can take a look at pics in my sig. they are TT2's with 7 1/4 inch backspacing and goes 1/4 inch backspacing. for every 1/2 inch of width wider or skinnier

18x9- 6 3/4
18x9.5- 7
18x10- 7 1/4
18x10.5- 7 1/2
18x11- 7 3/4

thats how my wheels work but each rim might be a little different.
very happy with my choice to go wide and tall though. no rubbing problems. and they sit perfectly flush in the front and maybe just in, in the back.
