not sure where to put this?

i'm heavily considering going with some 18" chrome z06 wheels and i'm wondering if the way they will have to be mounted to make fit will be able to handle 600 horsepower?

is it adapters or spacers that i'll need or both? anyone think i'll have a problem.

I also asked about fitment of Z06 rims within the last month and got no replies. I have seen them on a 4th gen and they need spacers to fit. I believe if I am correct that 4th gens have a wider axle than we have, I am assuming we would need a fairly large spacer to fit them--that always has scared me. I like when wheels are mounted flush to the brake hub, less flex and stress on the entire outer rotating assemblies-less chance for failure.
