Will they fit? Technically, yes.........but, they'll stick out the fenders a LOT

Basically^^^

or depending on the back spacing of the wheel. the car will either need a minitub, or fender flares.

What is the biggest size he can go without the tires sticking out of his Z.

I've seen that size on an 18x11.5 wheel with stock fenders on a Z06 and it fit just fine. Tire bulged a little but nothing crazy. An 18x13 WILL stick out no matter what the offset is. Not enough room on the inside to fit that much wheel without sticking out.

I do not have a Z so not sure if they are the same in this area. But I do have 18X11.5 and have 335/30/18 and they don't stick out much. I can take a picture if you want.

They are about the same, except Zs have a bit less room behind the wheel due to the rear brake ducts

What if he were to do a 18x12 with 335's would that stick out?

I ran repo Z06 wheels in a 18x12 with 335/30 tires and they did stick out a little, maybe 1/2" or so. It's noticeable but it didn't bother me.

I'm almost positive mine were a +64 offset, if that helps you.

Get the bigger fenders for it and go for the 13s if that's what you want
