c5 zo6 wheels

i'm looking at a set of wheels from oe wheels on ebay and have searched on here but came up empty handed so far. they are 18x10.5 and 17x9.5. the rears have 54mm offset while the fronts have 56mm offset, a little different than the oem zo6 wheels, i just want to know if i will have any issues with rubbing or needing a spacer

I get a little rubbing in the back with my 295s on. Mainly just when i hit a corner really hard. Gonna take the hammer to it and try to roll in the wheel well lip a bit. Normal driving it doesn't rub though. Hope this helps.

Yup. On the outside part of the tire wall. Not bad enough to rip chunks of the tire out or anything but some thing that needs to be remedied. The inside lip of the wheel well, you can feel it if you run your fingers over it, just don't slice yourself open, hits the outer wall just enough to cause noise and some abrasion to the tire. Should be a pretty easy fix.
