Default Wheel/Tire Question

So I'm planning to put 18 & 19" rims on my '02 coupe and my top pick (could change tomorrow) is the C5 Z06 replica wheels in the +1 sizes. House of Wheels has them in 18x9.5 and 19x11. Does anyone have experience with these wheels in the sizes mentioned? Will they fit properly without sticking out past the fenders? Lastly, what tires sizes work with these larger rims? Pics would be great if you have them! Thanks.

I would personally like to know the weights of the reproduction wheels offered by HOW. The stock Z06 17x9.5 has a 54mm offset and the reproduction 18x9.5 has a 57mm offset. The stock Z06 18x10.5 has a 57mm offset while the reproduction 19x11 has a 64mm offset.

As far as tire sizes for these reproduction rims, that would be; fronts 275/35-18 and rears 315/30-19 tires.
