Probably will have fitment issues with brakes.

I run 18X11 front, 18X12 rear. I severely modified a set of Spohn rear lower control arms to clear the inside barrel of the wheel. I get some rubbing from the rear sway bar in extreme cornering. Can't use wheel weights (stick on weights inside the wheel) as the clearance to brakes is non-existant.

It's a real PITA to load in the trailer, as the car is so low, I have to use 2X6 boards to load the car so it doesn't bottom out.

The plus side is I can pull 1.7+ G's on a skidpad...

You can't street drive with 18's on the Camaro.
Great information. Thanks!
