Question will front stock RS polished aluminium 20s fit on the rear?

Does anyone know if the stock polished RS 20 inch rim from the front will fit on the rear of a stock 2010 RS Camaro without the Brembo's?

Just thinking it could be an option for a matched set that could be partially able to rotate (unidirectional only...)

Thanks,

YES they will, EVEN WITH the Brembo's.....in fact, I am running the stock 20 x 9's and 275's on all four corners RIGHT NOW! works like a champ!

The OP asked if the FRONT WHEELS will fit on the rear without any problems.. To answer your question Yes they will. I sold four 20 x 8's to member up north for him to run snow tires on.

oops.....thats right.......but YES.....you can do that as well.....as a few people have done the 9's all the way around, and took their 8's, got another set of them as well and put WINTER tires on the 8's.

It opens up a lot of options...

1. running 275's on the 8's should in theory give a little more protection from curb rash, but depends on the tire mount...had a pair of BFG MTRs on a land cruiser that had a rim protective sidewall that rocked.

2. curious if running the 245's if it would change the mpg / drag strip time or any other handling aspects (running V6 so the 9's grip is not an issue currently @ launch)

3. potential of installing Atturo AZ800 and running them as the snow / winter tire as the price is great.

4. ability to rotate them partially - front to back and vice versa - as they are unidirectional...and I have unfortunately learned on another vehicle that running them in the wrong direction on the fronts makes it squirrley as hell.

5. the REAL reason - taking a set and blacking them out to see what it looks like on the IBM

Thanks guys!!!
