Default C6 Z06 wheel question.

I have a 2003 Z06 and would like to put some C6 Z06 wheels on it. I know my factory wheels are 10.5 inches wide in the rear and i believe the factory c6 wheels are like 11.5 inches wide or something like that. My question is will the c6 wheels stick out past the rear fenders when installed. I think that looks horrible if it does. I noticed some aftermarket z06 wheels are 11 inches wide and would probably fit better. What do you guys think. Thanks.

Oem c6z wheels will stick out a noticeable amount if you have stock fenders. Reps are available in 19x11 with correct offsets that will fit perfectly. I used to have the ones from our forum vendor house of wheels
