i believe the 56 mm offset is correct, i'm not sure about the front fiting with the 10.5" rim but they should.

Re: z06 rims...

most aftermarket wheels for the fbody are 17 by 9.5. And in the back you can go as wide as 11 wide just a bit of rolling the lip a bit. 10.5 should be good. I seen quite a few f-bodies with that combo and they look great.

no, because thats where you get tires that retain the same outside diameter as stock.
18x9.5 wheels- use 275/35/18 tires
17x9.5 use 275/40/17 tires

Re: z06 rims...

Do 18x10.5 wheels- use 295/35/18 tires or 305/35/18 or 315/35/18?
thanks

Re: z06 rims...

they can use any of the 1st 2. Althought Z06 stock tire size is 295s. for 315 you are better off going with 11" wide wheels.
