Im considering going with z06 rims, will this work? its the H style ones. Do you tink they will look good?
Size Pattern Offset / Backspace
17 x 9.5 5 x 4.75 +54mm / 7.37
18 x 10.5 5 x 4.75 +58mm / 8.02
 
Well, you would need massive spacers since a 4 in backspace is needed for a G body with stock track width.
 
will the lug patern work? here is what Im going for, what do you think?

the lug pattern will work, but it doesn't really matter. like 85cutlass said you will need very thick spacers (3inF and 4inR) which will allow you to adapt the lug spacing to what ever you need. but that large a spacer will create a lot of load on the bearings. plus i'm not sure if you'll be able to use full steering. if you narrow them an inch it'll be a bit easier.
i have heard that the cutlass's used a different fenderwell that decreases the rim width you can use. if this is true you may have some real problems.
