Rear tires to the FRONT - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Let's say that you have an extra set of stock tires and are considering smoke'n 'm off for fun in order to get some snow tires on those rims. Can I put the front tires on the back to get a little extra burn rubber time or will they not fit?

I'm pretty sure that it will work, but why waste good tires???? Hang on to them or sell them.

the front tires are more narrow than the rear tires. they will not fit.

you can't "rotate" the tires on this car like you could a pickup truck or a Toyota Camry.

Actually it's my understanding that this has been done, and there is no issue doing so.

I think that the tires on the front WILL fit on the front but it will look funny since the back tires would then be on the front and would be wider. It would look wierd, but should be doable.
