Default Rear wheel offset

I am experiencing some minor rear tire rubbing on the inner fender wells. Only seems to occur with a dip in the road as opposed to a bump if that makes sense. 1700 mi + 0n the clock I was not sure if I was hearing the guard under the front scrapping the road but felt the underneath of the rear fender and felt the tire rubber on the lip.
I factory ordered the car with the silver non chrome wheels but had ordered the chrome Z51 style wheels from Ecklers and installed them one delivery day.
Question is if anyone knows what the offset of the factory OEM wheel. I believe the offset of the aftermarket wheel is +79

+79mm is the factory offset for all OEM Stingray and Stingray Z51 rear wheels.
