Here is how you figure it, there is 25.5 mm in an inch. The Z06 wheel is a full inch wider, but it is a half inch on the inside and half inch on the outside. So take 13mm for numbers sake for the outside, now take in the 16 mm offset difference from 56 to 40, that gives you a total of 29mm just over an inch. If you plan to go with an aftermarket wheel I plan to go with a 10" at 40-42mm because at 9.5" at 40mm it tucks in about a 1/4 inch to far IMHO so the 10" will put it flush with the fender. As far as the rear 59 is about flush with the rear, I plan to go with a 20x12.5 with about a 64mm offset. That will keep it in line with the stock rear setting. Perreli makes a 345x25x20 that looks incredible on a 12.5. Good luck
