45th on factory reproduction zl1 replicas

Finally got my wheels mounted today. 275/315 toyo proxes on 10/11 inch zl1 replicas. All I can say is wow. Fitment couldn't be better they look like they came on the car but the car likes 10000 times more aggressive. I've already spoke with lupe about getting the center caps with a red bow tie than tint and showstopper side markers and exterior will be done.... For now.

Very very nice!!!

Love the ZL1 wheels. Honestly, it's my favorite wheel for the Camaro. It just fits the car and it does look factory on any Camaro. I think GM did right by making that wheel.

I wasn't sure if I would like such wide tires but that's my favorite part about the car already... The pep boys guy that installed it goes "so you really think an 11 inch tire with a 315 will look ok"... Perfect

Looks good. Center caps with red bow ties will really make pop.

Car looks great.

It's funny when I went to Total Tire Care in my area to get mine put on the installer said "these are going to fit on your car?" When he saw the 315/35/20 tires and the 11" wide wheels he didn't believe me when I told him they will fit fine (they are the same size and offsets as the wheels that come stock on the ZL1 Camaro).
After he installed them on my car, he was like

The best thing about the setup is the handling. I was really suprised by how much better my car handles with this setup.

Yea I completely agree there is so much extra tread it's like having a 5th tire. I've tried taking some quick corners just to see and it grips the road 100 times better than before

Gloss black finish. I looked at the matte but with a metallic colored car I think gloss was the way to go
