Will these rims work?

Will these rims work with my 95 camaro. They are 18x9.5. Do they need to be offset or anything like that? Also what would be a good tire match for these just for summer at a mid-level price range. Thanks.

look like fat spoke c5 wheels, should work if they are replicas with the proper offset. not to sure what the offset on the OE versions are

Re: Will these rims work?

The 97-99 C5 18x9.5" stock wheels had a 61mm offset. That is going to put the inside edge of the wheel close to the steering knuckle, but it might work with the 18" diameter. The higher up you go on the knuckle, the more it slopes back, away from the wheel. The wheel will look like it sits a little "deep" in the wheel well.
