C6 wheel size question

I'm being offered a set of wheels for my 2005 (C6) coupe. Supposedly OEM, stock. Sizes are: 18X8.5X56 front and 19X10X79 rear. I do not know what the third number in both strings means. I think it's offset. Am I correct? If so will these wheels fit my vette without spacers, adapters,or? Are these the standard offsets for stock C6 wheels? Asked someone at local Discount Tire and local Chevy Dealership (wheels guy). Neither could find his a** with both hands. One response I got was "don't worry about it." I've been on this forum lond enough to know someone here can and will help me. Thanks in advance!

Yes, those are the stock wheel sizes and offsets for the C6. Offset for the front is 56mm, and the rear is 79mm. They should fit perfectly with no spacers, adaptors, etc.

Yes, the third # is offset and yes, the sizes and offsets are stock. Now all you have to worry about weight, condition, aftermarket or factory,appearance and warranty of the finish.
