Zl1 with 15" Conversion - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

2013 ZL1 #7860 · 08-15-2016, 09:14 PM

Carlyle Racing 15" Conversion (Lower Control Arms, Trailing Arms, Drilled and Slotted Rear Rotors, Carlyle Racing Rear Calipers, BMR Xtreme Rear Sway Bar)

Also did the Carlyle Racing Billet Lug Nuts and Front Wheel Install Kit, Hubcentric Rings, Camber and Toe Adjuster Bolts, Drilled and Slotted Front Rotors and Longer Rear Studs and 3mm Spacers.

This setup is replacing my 20" Mickey Thompson Et Street S/S and 20" OEM Wheels. I Cut 1.5x 60 Foots but Broke the Inboard Driver Side CV.

Wheels and Tires:
Weld Racing 15x10 S71B Rears with Single Bead Lock
Weld Racing 17x4.5 Alumastar 1 Piece Fronts in Black
Mickey Thompson 325/50/15 ET Street R's
M and H 4.5/28R17 Radial Front Runners

I had to Trim the Rear Inner Fender Liners and Grind a Little Off of the Brake Line Bolt Locations on the Upper Control Arms.

Setup keeps full use of the MR Shocks and still has the Parking/Emergency Brake. Also tires are all 28" tall and should not throw ABS codes.

Looks so sick. I wish i went with the black beadlocks and alumistar fronts instead of polished non beadlock rts. Yea i was nervous putting on the 325 et street r i didnt think they would fit, it rubs a little on the passenger side fender liner because of the fuel filler neck

Trackman · 08-16-2016, 09:11 AM

64 lbs off the front. Havent weighed the rears or the brakes and control arms yet. I would guess 90 total.

Pro Stock John · 08-16-2016, 01:54 PM

Are your fronts radial or bias play DOT? I have M%H bias front DOTs they look like that.

bct10985 · 08-16-2016, 02:14 PM

Mine look just like that, bias ply

TOSTO RACING · 08-16-2016, 02:30 PM

M&H makes bias and radial fronts and they look identical
