Default c6 zo6 offset questions

I've got a set of 20x13 et43 and 19x10 et31..how far will these stick out front and rear?..can I get wide fenders front and back that will make these flush?..I know Quik z06 makes a 2 inch carbon flare for the rear, which I plan on getting if it will be wide enuff..more concerned about the fronts..thoughts on both fronts and rear and best options to make these wheels work..thanks

Ok after a little research with offsets calculator seems the rear will stick out 1.85 inch further than stock c5 z06 wheel and the front will stick out 1.14 inches further than stock c5 z06 wheel..I'm sure that quikz06 flared rears should work perfect but I'm not sure about the fronts...what are my options for the fronts?..any info of advice would be appreciated. .

I like the widebody rears and I was going that route anyway..these are very expensive forged concave wheels that I got a very good deal on..I really need to know my options on front fender flares..plenty of people change their fenders to widebody flares..

I have a friend that has a 10 Grand Sport ... I wanted to see what his rear wheels looked like on my car ... They were tucked to far up under my car and hit the inner hell well ...
I currently run the following on my 02 Z
325-30-19 x12 the wheel has a 57 or a 59 mm off set for the C5
285-35-18 front

Currently running the C6 z06 wheels on my car. 59 mm offset 19x12 no spacers with 285/35-19 With your 325 did you use a spacer so the tire didn't rub the inner fender? https://www.corvetteforum.com/c5-tech/3496027-c6-z06-19x12-fitment-with-pics.html

L5 is the only place I know of that currently sells a flared front fender, but you're only looking at 3/4 of an inch there... you could get a hold of a guy like Joey at 9k Racing to modify a stock front fender for you if it was that important to you
