Of course they'll work, it's the same car.

Just don't expect to find any ZL1 rims with rubber at a reasonable price for quite some time.

Tirerack is $1760 just for the tires. I've been looking to mimic the ZL1 tire/wheel setup for the track, but so far not much luck on the rear tire. Was hoping Michelin pilot super sports would line up, but so far only on the fronts. The rear in the closest fitting one is taller by .3" which worries me it might cause issues with ABS and TC.

I don't think .3" is going to be an issue. If you look in the "Recommended Tire Sizes for 2010 Camaro" thread over in the Wheels and Tire Talk forum, the recommendation is to stay within .5" front to back.

I just got some 275/40/20 and 315/35/20 Nitto Invo's for my car and they look and fit great.

Tire Size Service App. Meas. Sec. Diameter
Width Rim Width
285/35ZR20 100Y 9.5-11 10.0 11.4 27.9
305/35ZR20 104Y 10.0-12.0 11.0 12.3 28.4

285/35ZR20 104Y 9.5-11 10 11.4 27.9
315/35ZR20 110Y 10.5-12.5 11 12.6 28.7

(Column headings are messed up with formatting, can't fix that within the post)

The first listing is the F1s, the second is the pilots. I was referring to the difference between the F1s and the Pilots in the rears. Between the front and rear Pilots it's .8" so it's a problem. I'm looking for a tire (hoping for Pilot SS) with the same size as the F1s so I could go with a 10" and 11" wheel.

275/35/20 and 295/35/20. Super sports run VERY wide and blow the Goodyears out of the water. I am running this setup and a few others without any issues!

OK, I see what you're saying now.

Im running the ZL1 wheels with Invos, 315/35/20 and 275/35/20. No problems and the fronts are 1in. smaller than the rears. 275/40/20 fronts are to tall for the ZL1 wheels with a one inch drop. The offsets on the front are very aggressive.

The difference threshold to where the computer freaks out is 6%. On a 28" tall tire that is 1.68". So .8" is fine.

Hey to all the Camaro owners and supporters. I am currently in Afg supporting the H-60 helicopters for the US Army. I have a 2011 Camaro SS. Im looking at putting some Niche "Concorse" wheels with the Contanetial DWS tires. I have looked at alot of pics and read some of the post. My concern is that with the combination of the Niche wheels and the 315/35/20 will there be some rubbing on the fenders. From what i can see it just depends on the combanation of wheels and tires.. In advance thanks... Semper Fi
