Default Rear widebody, front wheel??

I did try search and didn't find an answer. I thought I remember that it was possible to put factory Z06 (9 1/2") wheels with 245 18's on the front of a C6 w/o them sticking out too far. I want to do a rear widebody only with factory Z06 wheels all around. Am I asking for trouble?

There's someone running them that I've seen pics of and it will work. The tires are a bit stretched, but it will work.
