XXR 521 Quick fitment question

I have someone willing to sell me a brand new set of 20" xxr 521 at a dealer cost but I've heard some people's here say that it will not clear the brembo brakes on the SS. So what about for the v6? My Guy said that it shouldn't be a problem to clear the v6 brakes. I just want to get some clarification.

The wheel specs are staggered, 20x8.5, and 20x10 for the rear. Offset of +31 and +30, 5x120 pattern.

Yeah , the guy at xxr asked me about the model year and brakes [ front ], then he said that those wheels were designed for the import cars in mind , so it would not clear the front Brembos ONE THING THAT HE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT ,IS THE CENTRAL BORE [ 73,1 ] it looks way larger than the camaro .

I have the V6 and no brembos. I tried calling but can't get anyone. I did find someone here with the 521 on their V6 so I guess it fit on the V6. Old friend, is the 73.1 our factory bore size or for the xxr?

I found some at nlmotoring.com and they responded to my emails really fast and not sure about the whole SS brake clearance but they already told me and sent pictures of customers who had them mostly 20"s but yea they have v6s. They have the bolt patterns and different offsets too.

Question what whould be a good spec for these they Have 20" 10.5 width and +30 offset should I go with 10.5 all four corners? or go smaller upfront or go with what offset?
