Im getting c6 rims.. Please help choose

Im getting a new set of c6 rims for my camaro and I want a perfect look. I am concerned about whether to get 18x9.5 or 18x10.5 and if spacers are required. Below is a pic of the exact look I want. Can you guys help me out here?

Look at the FAQ, stickied at the top of the "Wheels and Tires" topic page, for info on putting the OEM C6 wheels on a 4th Gen. The stock C6 wheels are 18x8.5" front, 19x10.5" rear, Z06's came with 18x9.5 and 19x12's.

Problem is, there are no factory C6 wheels in 18x9.5 (except for the Z06) or 18x10.5, so appears you are dealing with after-market wheels. In order to know how they fit, you have to provide the offset or the backspace info.

Thats what I want to know... I have already looked at the FAQ and was wondering if anyone knows the correct info to make the wheels look right.

Look at the post on page 2 of the FAQ, that shows what offset is required for each wheel width. With the correct offset, you don't need anything to put them on, and have them look just like the car in the photo.
