Default What size wheels for C6 Z51

What size and offset wheels can I run on a C6 z51. I am thinking I want 18x10s if possible in the front, and 18x11s in the rear. No idea on what offset I need. Anyone done anything similar, and have any suggestions for me?

I tried 18x11+18x11 and the fronts were a bit too wide. I now have 18x10+18x11. John & Chip at CCW took care of the sizing for me. They fit well. Running 275/35r18+305/35r18 Toyo R888s. I think the fronts are a 7.75" backspacing. I'm not sure what the rears are. I think you can calculate them based on the stock wheels and backspacing.
