Corvette Wheel help!

Alright, so yesterday I went and picked up a set of what I thought where 17x7 and 18x8 C5 Corvette wheels, but when I got home with them and measured, they were really 18x9 and 19x10's... Will these still fit my 92 Camaro with the 2" adapters? If so, what tire size should I look for?

Re: Corvette Wheel help!

Rears should be 2.5" spacers.

C6 rear wheels have huge offset, like 79 mm.
