Got my 22s in and they don't fit - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Put my 22s on my car and they rub on the strut purch where the spring rides. I was told that they run this size on camaros all the time. They are 265 35 22s..What do you guys run on yours. ? It's rubbing on the top of the tread

what you need to do is to get some 10mm spacers and move the wheel out that much.

I tried that but it didn't work. Plus the isn't much thread on the studs after you put the spacers on there

Should have got a 265/30-22. The 35 is too tall.

why didn't that work? does the wheel/tire still rub the perch? if so, get a bigger spacer. AND then you need new studs

Offset plays a big part too.
I go with 255/30-22 every time i sell them.

When I talked to them they said they use this combo on camaros all the time with no issues

Bo White · 04-24-2014, 06:42 PM

I have 245/35-295/30 on 9/10.5 wheels and lowered 2".

Are putting in longer wheel studs hard to do?

Not if you can find them. NAPA might have some made by Dormon. Just get some high quality hub centric adaptors and you don't need to worry about the studs. But they will cost more, but are safer IMO.

I use 255/30/22 on my fronts! When you run into that issue it's most likely because the wheel offset is wrong! But buy a bigger spacer!
