Recommended Tire Size 2010 Camaro HELP!!

I need help please.
I'm confused, I want to make sure I get the right size.
I have a 2010 Camaro, a few weeks ago I purchased some wheels from a little tire shop.
The wheels are 20" Chevy Camaro Factory Wheels but I have no idea what year car they came off of.
Sooo, Im wondering... besides calling the guy I bought them from, is there a way to find out what year they are?? I assume the tire size I need depends on the originality of the wheels, right?
Any input is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance guys.

new wheels ,,, tires????

I have new wheels the Mickey thompson SC-5 ESS ,,,Front 20x9 ,bolt 5x120mm ,BS 5.87",ET:+22mm,,, which im going to put my rear old tires that are in good shape on the front ,they are Perlli 275/40-20=28.7" tall.

Rear wheels 20x10.5, bolt 5x120mm,BS.7.09,ET:+34mm,,which Im thinking of putting ether the perlli 305/35-20=28.4" tall or the 315/35-20=28.7" tall.

Would the 305/35-20 be to small of a diameter that would throw my speedo off,,could you see the size difference,, looking at it?? The 305/35 are more readily available// The 315/35 would have to be backorder.

Do any of you see an unseen, to me problem? Before I spend another $1000.

Looking at buying a set of new Hurst Stunner wheels for my 2010 2SS i want to run the 20x9s with 275 all around but i can t seem to find the off set for the 20x9 Stunners which is a front fitment dont want them tucked to far inside the rear wheel well. Any help with find the offsets will be appreciated. I have sent hurst wheels a email and no response and tire rack just keeps telling me i cant run 275 in the front unless i roll the fender well lips or modify it some how. the ZL1 runs a 285 20 in the front so i dont see a issue with it.

Pretty much the same rules apply as what this thread is meant for.

Front stock 245/45/20, if you went with a wider front like 265/45/20 how much will this wider front tire effect driving and handling? Anyone?
I currently run 255/40/20 front and 295/35/20 rear Nitto Invos, 255 in the front isn't much different than the stock 245. Planning on rear Michelin SS 295/35/20 in the near future.

I am going to buy the silver ZL1 rim replicas, and want to know what width and offset to buy to get a square setup that can be rotated.

at least 285's, 20 inch

I'm planning on running 315/35/20 on a 10.5" TSW wheel on the rear lowered 1". Can anyone else running this setup or similar chime in on any issues please..... I want to make sure I'm not going to have any rubbing issues.
