19inch factory wheels on 2SS RS Camaro??

Hi Guys,

I am thinking about purchasing the factory 19inch (19x8) alloy rims as a winter set. Will those fit over my brembo brakes on my 2SS convertible?

I think you can if you add 1 1/4" spacer adapters (as I was told in 2010). Not worth it.

Yes. I am running the factory 19" wheels in the winter. You do need a 4-5mm spacer on the fronts to clear the calipers.
This is my third winter season, no issues. They look much better than plain black steel rims.

Here are some pics of the winter wheels/tires. Please excuse the uncleanliness of the car.....it lives in the driveway and hasn't been washed in a while.
