22's or 24's???? - Page 14 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

When my car had drop springs it was lowered 1.25". Now that I've gone to coil overs it's probably lowered only .75". The ride is unbelievable and the handling is awesome. I first had the coilers adjusted lower, but I didn't like the way it handled. So it got adjusted higher. Now when I set the coil overs to smooth and I have my heavy 22s on, I bet my car rides nicer than a stock SS.

Man, that GFX kit you have makes yours look like it almost on the ground. Very nice!

This 20" rim is on a 275/40R20 on the coil over set up As u can tell in this picture it's not that much lower than stock height.

This is 22" rim on a 265/30R22 on the drop spring set up. Both tire sizes are close if not the same as factory.

Just wanna say thank u to everyone of you all that are in the military. Hats off to all of you. I have the upmost respect for anybody who serves for this country. I wish I could go back in time to when I was 18.. And dats whut it izz doe. Ghettolisicios ass Camaros on dem twenty foes all donktified lol. **** em. Throw some 24s on it and drop it.. That's what I did. No one on here pays for your car. After all, Chevy offers 21" with a Camaro from the factory. So 24" isn't that much of a difference with a small tire. I bet I get more compliments on my v6 Camaro on 24s than 99% of these people with 18s on their ss. For real

I think 24's look a little ridiculous. Go for 22's.

Thanks bruh! It really started as a four year plan for me. Get some money for college and be out. Next thing you know, I'm traveling all around the world doing all sorts of things I couldn't even imagine to do if I had to foot the bill. Then, married, so you know I gotta keep a job now. Advancements, deployments, wars, and everything. It's been a great 21 years. Hanging it up though, this is a young man's game that's for sure. I appreciate the dap though.

24's done right look really good. When most people think of the ridiculous look, they're usually thinking of the 26's. Take a look at my pics. I did 22's on the front, 24's on the rear. I think the set up is hot. I didn't like the exposed wheelwell, so I lowered it an inch and a quarter. It's not a donk. That ain't my style either. But, hell I'll cruise with a donked out Camaro any day. But, that's just me.

AVNMechanic · 12-25-2011, 04:15 PM

If I could only choose 22 or 24 on the Camaro from factory, I would choose 22's. But I actually want 19's, I honestly don't like anything bigger than 20's, even the factory 21's are to big for me. But I digress, OP pick what you like. It's your car and you will be living with it. I don't have any experience with the ride quality of either so I can't say my opinion on that point. And to all those people who don't think 22's or 24's look nice, there is no reason to be calling them names, donk, ghettolishious(spelling?) That sounds like something a bully would say and its not constructive or relevant to the conversation. 19's dropped 1.25" for me. OP good luck with the rim hunt. To my brother and sister's in arms, much love and respect!
