Bigger wheels for a 2011 camaro LS?
I have a 2011 Camaro LS and was wondering if you guys know if I can add bigger wheels on it and if I can what would you recommend. The wheels that it currently has are 245/50 R18's.

the wheels on your LS are 18x7.5 the tires are 245/5x/18. My advice for an inexpensive upgrade is look for a set of RS or SS wheels with tires and you will be good to go. Other options are look at tire rack and see what you like...

Thanks to all that replied! And sorry Philip1 I don't know much on wheels. But I'll check out tire rack. But one last question. Do I have to worry about the wheels hitting the inside of the fender wall or brakes when I'm getting bigger wheels?

Stock 20's will fit with no issues (20x8 front and 20x9 rear). Or....many of us have done 20x9 all around with 275/40/20. Improves handling and you can rotate them. Search the member classifieds... you can get em pretty cheap.
