They will fit with flared fenders. Otherwise they will stick out a bunch. I just went through this dilemma. Just received today my Corvette Creationz flared fenders and House of Wheels C6 Z06 wheels, 19x12 & 18x9.5. If you call and speak with Bob down there and tell him what you have he will know the offset you want. The front offset in the 18" size require a C5 offset, not the C6 offset.

I have a set of C6Z wheels on my FRC with the C5 offsets. My rears are 19x11 with 325-30-19 tires.

this setup REALLY fills out the back end of the car !

Don't know why the search couldn't find my exact thread about this.

Lots of discussion about this on the forum but sometimes hard to find. They do stick out but it's not much, a lot of guys have done it. You can offset that with a slightly skinnier tire than the OEM 325s.

I originally had 285-35-19 on the rear
Without spacers the rim itself touches the inner fender. Now with the 325-30-19 it slightly rubs in turns when there a dip or raise. I'm OK with it.
