Will a .3 difference in ride height throw codes? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

SLOW1SS · 07-02-2018, 05:27 PM

I currently have 275/40/r20 in the front and 315/35/r20 in the rear with an even 28.7 ride height. I’m interested in running a 305/35/20 rear for more tire options. I was told the height on the rear would be 28.4. Has anyone done this before and will it’s cause the abs lights to come on?

The car isn’t lowered at all and the wheels are 20x9 and 20x10.5.

No, it won't throw lights. It's 6% or more in height difference that will throw lights.

It wont throw codes but the size difference between the front and rear wheels will be easily noticeable. Ask me how I know

Lol. Ok It all started when I was just knee high to a grasshopper but seriously I had the exact same setup and it annoyed the crap out of me. 275/40/20 up front and 305/35/20 NITTO Drag Radials in the rear. I could actually see the difference every time I looked at it or maybe im just anal like that.

Lol I’m pretty anal too, but I have more radial options in a 305 and I NEED traction. What did you end up switching too?

Would you happen to have a pic of the set up?

Get a set of MT Street SS. I had a set of Nitto NT05R and the MTs were better for me.

I'm running 305/35/r20 in the back and 285/35/r20 in the front with no problems.

Yea thats what I’m looking to buy but they don’t make a 315 so I wanted to make sure the 305 didn’t throw any codes.

On 20x9 fronts?

I ended up going with nitto NT555 G2s 315/35/20 they are the exact same size as the 275/40/20. Don't currently have a good picture of the setup but check out my garage
