Something is not right , on the left [ front one ] IT SAYS WHEEL FACE and the arrow points to the tire face ,and on the second one it says the same but points to the RIM face , what should i make out of this ?

The above pic is someone's guess using a online offset calculator.

I have a 2010 SS. If I ordered the F1's in the size for the ZL1, will most tire shops know how to properly install it? I have a friend that put them on his SS, and a ZL1 owner that said the tire will work fine on it, but when I see this talk about offset I'm starting to wonder if there is something I've not been told.

Was looking to order them within a couple weeks, so I appreciate any insight.

Just ask Doug, I know I was not planning on lowering my car so I went with the 10" with 23 offset all the way around. If thinking of lowering Doug says 35 offset. Actually here is the post with the sizes: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=292326

I think they look mean as hell with the 23 offset.

I am not sure if you are asking if you can put them on oem SS wheels, but the ZL1 oem tires will not work on SS oem wheels. I guess you can make them fit, but not recommended, even by the manufacture.

If you are asking if the OEM ZL1 wheels and tires will fit the SS, then it is no problem.

Hey Scott@Bjorn3D where did you get those wheels? I want a set! I have a Victory Red 2013 1SS and think those compliment your car very well! PM me sir with details(offset, where from and price)? Thank you!

Just measured stock 2014 ZL1 wheels.

Front = +23mm offset
Rear = +43mm offset

A few years late, but the thread still comes up on a Google search so maybe it will help the next guy.
