Default Another Offset question

Sorry guys, I'm sure there has been a million post like mine but I was unable to find one with my particular question. Here it goes:

Will an 18x9.5 wheel with a 35 offset stick out of the fender on my C5? I was researching the Z06 offset and used an offset calculator to see the difference and it only came out to a 10mm or .39" extended difference.

I'm not sure how flush the Z06 wheels are to the fenders and am unsure if that 10mm will cause problems.

Thanks Guys.

If you're using this wheel (35mm) in the rear, than it may sit flush or stick out very slightly (less than 1/8"). I think you'll be fine.
