Future 2014 Camaro 1LE Question's - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Arodr395 · 06-04-2013, 04:42 AM

I plan on ordering a 2014 1LE when they become available. I might end up changing the rear tires to the 305/35ZR20 tires that the ZL1 brings stock. Would it be possible to order the 1LE with that tire change or would the dealer have to install them after I receive it? Also if it is possible to order the car with those tires I'm guessing GM would adjust the speedometer and the odometer or would the dealer have to do that once they receive the car? My final question is how much would the 305/35ZR20 tires be if I wont be having the 285/35ZR20 on the rear? Would I have to pay full price for the tires or would I just pay the difference?

I'm 99% sure you won't be able to order the car with the 305's on it from the factory, which would mean dealer install/calibration, and full price. Although i'm also sure you wouldn't have a problem recouping some of the tire price by selling the 285's with only 20-30 miles on them. By the time you take a 2014, there'll be plenty of people looking for new 285's.

Place your order now, wait, buy the rear tires you're looking for and have them mounted after it delivers. Start you're internet shopping for prices, it's quick and simple.

How much would I be able to sell the tires for?

That's awesome to hear!

Keep us posted on the process.

I'm contemplating doing the upgrade on mine and then saving the old tires for the fronts later. The $$$$ may discourage that.

I think the rears were priced at around $350. But that was when I looked while I was waiting for delivery. Can't say what they'll go for by the time you're ready to take them off

What would that do the anti-lock braking system? You will be running slightly taller rear tires, which means they won't be rotating at the same speed as the fronts.
