Default CCW Drag Pack offset.

I just bought a used CCW Drag Pack.The rears are 16 x 10 with an offset of 6 9/16 from the axle flange to the very outside of the wheel.On my C5 these wheels stick out past the fender lip by about 1" and have 2" of clearance on the inside.Are these wheels made for a C4 or a C6?I'm running 2002 Z06 shocks and I don't know how much the car will squat say on a 1.40 60' before they hit the body.
Thanks in advance.

The rims or tires stick out past the fender? What size tire is mounted?

I have a C5 drag set of CCW's in the garage. If you tell me what the heck i'm looking at and how to obtain the offset measurement, i'll be happy to do it for you.

Thanks.If you take a straight edge/ruler and lay it on the outside of the back of the wheel then measure with another ruler to the inside back of the wheel where the axle buts up to the wheel then that will be your back spacing.If your wheels are 10" wide it should be about 8".

The tires are 28 x 10 Hoosier slicks and it is the tire that sticks outside the body by about 1".
Thanks

7 3/8" might be as much as 7 1/2" but with air in the tire I can't get the straight edge tight to the rim.
Rims according to my CCW receipt wheels are 16x10
