I run 17x9.5 with 56mm offset. The 2mm difference (58mm vs 56mm) will increase the backspace of the wheel by less than 1/10th of an inch. Since you are looking at a larger diameter wheel, and the steering knuckle is curving backwards more relative to the edge of the wheel, as wheel diameter increases, I would say they will work.

OE Wheels specifically says "Camaro, Firebird and Trans am 1993 thru 2002. Fitment provided for stock vehicles only." I would simply verify with OE Wheels.
