Stock rear SS rims fit on front? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Will the stock rear wheels fit on the front with no rubbing? If so, how much rubber could I stick on the rims with no rub issues?

VR Baron · 01-06-2014, 11:46 PM

Yes. 275s are really it, and the 20x9s are the minimum size

SS PANTHER · 01-06-2014, 11:50 PM

I run the 20x9's on 275-40-20's all around with no problem. The square setup is how the car should have come from the factory for rotational, load and handling purposes.
I would not run anything wider than a 275 on the stock 20x9's. You may want to consider 275-35-20's for a slightly lower profile.

I was thinking of doing this setup myself. Is there any noticable offset between front and back?

YES, there are a TON of us that running the stock 20x9's and 275/40's on all 4 corners.....I have been running it for about 1-1/2 years now. no issues at all, and the car actually handles better this way.

I want to do that too. Is it a real noticeable improvement? Does it increase the chance for rock chips behind the front wheel, or is that just a 50/50 chance anyway?

It will increase the chance of rock chips on the rear gills.

Yes they will fit with no rubbing, I dont have stock wheels but I run 20x9s on the front with 275/40/20 tires

I'm just looking to do this for the track. I like my forgestar rims. Going to us my stock rims for track tires.

What tires do all of you like to put on this square setup?

SS PANTHER · 01-10-2014, 04:04 AM

I'm running Invos. Think about a 275-35-20.
