C6 wheel Fittment issues?

[darkthoughts5000]

well, i think its time to re-revamp my camaro again, (check out my cardomain page) so im thinkin about changin my ZO6 wheels out for the new C6 wheels as one of the many things i plan to change. there are a lot of specials going on for em on ebay, and i was just wondering if anyone thought there would be clearance issues? now im almost definately sure that the 18X8.5 for the front will fit, im more concerned with the 19X10 for the rear. an "allignment specialist" at the local chevrolet dealership said the rears may not, but i was wondering if anyone has tried it. something about 10" being too wide it would hit the fender well. well, just let me know what you think. these are the rims im thinkin about getting... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ayphotohosting

what are you gonna do about the corvette flags in the middle of the rims?

[darkthoughts5000]

... well, since these rims are replicas, im hoping theyre like my ZO6 replicas and come with corvette decals. i just wont put the decals on. im thinkin the mechanic at the dealership is right and the rears wont work, so im just gonna probably end up going with a set of 4 18X8.5" wrapped in a 40 series tire.

I thought the rr could have a fitting issue too, due to the offset.
Here are more rims, if you haven't seen them already:

these come in a 17" set of the same sizes, though u prolly want 18's

about the 10" being to wide and hitting the fender well, i have 18x10.5 in the rear and it fits fine and havnt had any problems with rubbing. I think the c6 rims would look good... itll be something different that not a lot of people have.

Ive got 18x10.5 all around with no clearance issues. alot of the guys over at the f-body auto-x site run 17x11 any larger and you have to use wheel spacers.
