Default aftermarket wheel width

so i'm in the market for some aftermarket wheels for my z06. interested in the ccw classics specifically

I believe it came stock with 9.5 on the front?

how about for the rear? it came with 10.5 pretty certain. what's everyone go with for the back? can 11 fit under there? or is that a hassle worrying about rubbing and brake ducts? or does it look crazy it it sticks out

I had CCW Classics on my Z06. I ran 18" wheels front and rear, 10" wide fronts and 11" wide rears. I had them on for several years with absolutely no problems of any kind. I sold them a while back to go with larger diameter wheels. You'll have no problems with those sizes.

I ran Mallet 18 x 9.5 and 18 x 11's with 335/30 on the rear no rubbing and the car was lowered
