Will I have any issues at all. Thanks.

Steve65 - Two follow up questions for you:
* Are you currently running run flats on your 3LT in the stock 275/40/20 size? (and if so - is it the OEM Goodyear Eagle all-season run-flat?)
* and what brand/model of run-flats are you getting for free in the wider (and taller in rear) sizes?

I agree with last two posters, that I don't think you want to run that tall of a rear tire, but the reason I ask the above questions is that if you don't mind run flats an interesting option might be to run the new 275/35/20 that your neighbor had on the front on your rear wheels (can use SS OEM style 9.5" rear wheel on the 275's if you can match your existing front wheels). You'd just want to make sure you had reasonably matched front tires to go with them (ideally same brand/model of tire in the 245 size).
If you aren't using and happy with run flats now, than I would just go with the above advice to just sell these tires and get better sized wheels/tires.

Now I have the Pirelli P0 run flats on 245 45 20 . I have a convertible so need them. Neighbor gave me goodyear F1 runflats. 285 fronts 305 rears. They have no miles on them. Going to purchase the LE wheels 20x10. 20x11. The only reason i have run flats is the convertible...thx for help.

Sure -

Just are you sure those new tires are run-flats?
At least for what is currently available from goodyear.com site, I do see in the 275/35/20 size the Goodyear Eagle® F1 Asymmetric 2™ ROF (this is OEM for SS rear wheel and is a run-flat) but for 305/35/20 size I see only Eagle® F1 SuperCar® 3 (non run-flat).

Maybe Goodyear used to make a run flat in this size? but you might just want to double check that.
Good luck - hope it works out well for you!

What is the wheel size and offset (front and back) for the wheels on the regular ZL1?

Good choice! If you decide to get rid of the runflats in the future, pick up one of these inflator kits, it is the exact one Chevy puts in the SS 1LEs but without the Chevy branding and about 1/2 the price, it even perfectly fits into the styrofoam cut out under the trunk floor...

Thank you, nice kit for $64. I have been on non run flats for almost 40k miles without a plan. I think I will get this.

They are identical dimensions to those on the SS 1LE:

20x10 et20 front, with 285/30/20 tires
20x11 et43 rear, with 305/30/20 tires

I'd rather have the stock twisted split 5spoke wheels.

I was wondering the same thing. I'll bet the OP has oem Supercar3's and misread the sizes on the fronts

Steve65 (OP) - Can you clarify if your new tires are really in the sizes of your original post (275/35/20 & 305/35/20) on this thread?
https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showt...8#post11391408
And what full tire model name are they? (there are lots of "Goodyear Eagle F1" variants that are very different tires)
And are they really run flats and if so, how did you confirm this?
Or as L78toLT1 and I suspect, are they really the ZL1 OEM tire?
(On your other recent post on different thread you are saying you have the ZL1 OEM tire sizes?)
