The factory reproductions are what I put on my car over a month ago and they are amazing quality, lighter than stock, and very good customer service. I was talking to someone last week that has a zl1 and uses these as a spare set for the track.

Once you see that stance you may say it's worth the wait to get bigger rims with rubber.. (New rubber with wider tires will run you (2000-2300)
I want to keep my tires...But you're saying if I get new tires I'll get that wider ZL1 looking stance? It's my Pirellis are practically brand new and I love how they ride and feel...

If you keep your stock tires you can get the zl1 wheels 20x8 up front 20x9 in the back. The new wheels will look way different in your stock ones in that instead of being a few inches inside the fender wells, they will be flush or close to it depending on what offset you get which is similar to the zl1 stance. If you want the best (IMO) stance save up and get 20x10 wheels up front and 20x11 in the rear, these will still be flush with the fender but because of how wife they are they give the camaro an insanely aggressive look, in a couple mins I'll go out and take a pic of my car from the rear with an 11 inch wheel and I think you will agree with me.

Ok I looked through the ones they sell, and didn't see these, and I think these are the only ones that would go with my car.

Yea to my knowledge they don't make those but maybe someone more experienced can chime in. If you have any other questions feel free to ask and good luck if you do go with the 45th wheels. As long as you get an 8-8.5 width wheel up front and 8.5-9 inch wheel in rear you can keep your stock Pirelli tires.
