wheel offset for 18 x 10.5

I am wanting to install 18 x 10.5 Z06 wheel on the rear of my Camaro. It has an Eibach Pro kit installed. I have searched and all I can find is Zephers photos. It looks good but they stuck out too far for my likings. What offset are you guys/gals running??? I would really like to see pictures of them installed. I did see some pictures of some ones grey Z with Z06's tucked in real nice but I did not see a demension given for offset.

58mm offset and 7.9 inch backspacing..they recommend a 2 inch spacer. if you want, ask for a custom spacer just a tad smaller...so it wont stick out far at all.

but a buddy of mine i met at the track with a thirdgen camaro has Zo6 wheels on his with spacers..and they look great! 2inch spacer and it seems to fit fine. i think a 1.75-1.9 incher tho would be perfect and tuck it in abit more. but it looked fine as is.

forgot to mention I have a LS1 rear all ready. So they would have to go on with no spacers
