Recommended 21" tires for 2010 Camaro
245/40-21 = 28.7" tall, 8.0-8.5 wheel
255/40-21 = 29.0" tall, 8.0-8.5 wheel
265/35-21 = 28.3" tall, 8.5-9.0 wheel
275/35-21 = 28.6" tall, 9.0-9.5 wheel
285/35-21 = 28.9" tall, 9.5-10.0 wheel
295/35-21 = 29.1" tall, 10.0-10.5 wheel
305/30-21 = 28.2" tall, 10.0-11.0 wheel
315/30-21 = 28.4" tall, 10.5-11.0 wheel
Jamie-

I don't know much about wheels/tire ratios myself but there's a good detailed explanation in the tire section, by phenotype the sponsors... I used it when I was deciding on wheels- it really helped me out

I would keep it with the factory wheel sizes to not mess up a good thing or go wider in the rear for a new look but then you have other variables with rim width size..
*sigh* ok...should've never went with 21's lol

Not much into religion but this for you!

Lord our God, You guided man to invent this car which is as fast as the wind: Therefore, O Lord, pour now upon it your heavenly blessings. Grant unto it a guardian angel that it may be guided upon the rightful road and be preserved against all harm. Enable those who ride in this car to arrive safely at their destination. For in your ineffable Providence, You are the Provider of all things, and to You we give glory, to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and always and for ever and ever. Amen. Blah blah blah..... and so on

O and while your at it please help GM fix the Top issues! Thanks Bro!

Awesome Dion!!!!!! Lmfao!!!!!!


I couldn't do it... after seeing a group of... um... "less than desirable " ppl walking through the lot, stopping to check out my car, I had enough. Packed my daughter up and we left. Now we're in a much more accommodating Holiday Inn, she's swimming and my cars happily meangling with a Charger SRT in the lot.... perhaps it was devine intervention after all; they refunded my "other" hotel!

Unless its Krystel, or other similarly hot, young females, everyone's "less desirable" when it comes to hanging around my car! (P.C. baby!!!!!)

Now here's one for you... currently at Hooters in Augusta, 2 waitresses ASKED to take pix w me car (insert permagrin) but I had to decline... of course out of respect to my wife who's not here with me, and a distant second is the fact my car is so embarrassingly dirty- I don't want anyone taking pix of it!
