Default c7 wheels on sale

Are these c7 wheels and are they symmetrical or do they have a weird angle to them? Some pictures look perfecty symmetrical and some others looked contoured not sure if base c7 or c8 wheels i was looking at. They have the SM29 18x9.5" 40mm offset is correct fit for front of 99 c5 for 131$? Can someone confirm these wheels dont look backwards when you look at the car from either side and will fit c5 front? is the 40mm offset the same as the stock speedline 18x9.5 rears or 17x8.5" offset for the fronts?

I found some 17x8.5 c5 z06 wheels but not sure as they charge 50$ shipping its not as good of a deal as jegs or oe wheels with free shipping though this is the only place i found 17x8.5 the stock base model c5 fronts. Can anyone tell me if the offset is different from the speedlines or the same to where the wheel will sit out a slight bit further and not tucked way under the fender?
