THE WIDEST.......... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I got a 2010 SS/RS & would like to put more meat out back. Does anyone know what the widest wheel & tire combo is that you can fit on our camaros? Example: could you squeeze 305s or larger in the rear? If so, how wide of wheel would a guy wanna use to be able to accommodate the widest tire? Also, same question for the front. Although I will most likely stay with the stock size or go one size larger than stock for the front. Thanks

I am running 305 Pirelli PZero's in the rear and there is plenty of room for more. My wheels are 10.5 in wide. I have seen people running 315s and 325s with no cutting or anything. Hope that answers your questions.

If you go with a larger wheel like a 22" 305/30ZR22 is the widest. I believe some people have gone with the 315/35zr20 and that fits 10.5"to a 12.5" rim. We have only gone as wide as 11" rear wheels so far. I think the factory wheel is 10" wide rear. Hope that helps

Factory wheel is 9" in the rear and 8" front.

how do u like your tires (Vredestein) and i was wondering if those were run flats, they look great

Nine Ball · 03-21-2011, 10:56 PM

275 wide fronts (9.5 wide wheels) and 315 wide rears (11.5 wide wheels) is the max fitment on these cars, without any rubbing issues. The correct offsets are critical, however. Plus, different suspension brands/components and lowering can affect the fitment. Be sure to pick a vendor that knows all this info.

That combo looks fantastic... best looking set of wheels I've seen on a Camaro yet IMHO.

Not a big fan of the riveted look, but that wheel/tire combo is the best looking aftermarket set up I've ever seen on a 5th gen.

Rivets killed most wheels for me. I "scored" with these:
