You should stay with a tire that has the same type qualities as your original tires including load index and speed rating. I would also not put a tire made for another type of vehicle (SUV and Crossover for the spec x) on my performance car.
Until other manufacturers come out with tires that are staggered correctly for the Camaro we will be stuck with Pirelli if you want matching tires.
the spec x is plent sufficient, there are several vehichles i have put these tires on that are not suv or crossovers, some zr tires are rated at 149, obviously the y speed rated are not.
