zl1 offsets? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

chalhoee · 02-25-2014, 08:02 PM

What's up guys! I was considering buying some zl1 reps but I'm unsure about the offset to choose. I currently have PFADT lowering springs on my camaro and Tony Whatley was kind of enough to get me the correct offsets for my f14's! But now I don't know if I should keep my same offsets or change them up a bit..

I was running 20x9.5 F and 20x10.5 R on the f14's but for the zl1 wheels I want 20x10 and 20x11.

That being said, Will I have any issues with this staggered setup in terms of rubbing issues etc?

What offsets should I get with this setup?

Thanks for your input

I think the offsets are very close. I'd like to hear the answer too and I know it's been posted before.

hmmmmm well mike.....since you have a ZL1.....what are the offsets of your OEM wheels? I mean, the offset is on the back of each wheel......take a look and let us know. I have wondered why the wiki hasn't been updated for the new OEM wheels.

LoL

I thought they are +22 front +39 rear but I would like to know for sure.

Front +23, Rear +43. There's members running up to 1.5" drop w/ 285F/315R w/ no issues

I have a 1LE (ZL wheels 20x10 and 20x11) lowered 1" with stock 285s out front. No worries and our roads are worse than most!

This is correct. But, I'd typically spec a less aggressive front offset than the factory ZL1/1LE wheels, to tuck the tire a little more. You likely don't have a choice with repro wheels, though.
