Default C5 rim questions for a C3

I have a couple questions on fitting C5 Z06 rims on a C3.

1 - What size adaptors are needed to fit an 18X9.5 wheel?

2 - Where can I find a someone who sells hub centric adapters (I am looking for the adapters that have a lip where the wheel can sit on)?

Those of you that have C5 Z06 rims can you post your wheel & tire size along with the size of adapters you used. Also a pic wouldn't hurt!
