the vette rims that fit the camaro ? are the front zo6 18x9 or the grand sport 18x9...have to be oem as reproductions have incorrect offset..

just make sure they have the 40mm offset..and just so everyone knows..no vette wheels are a exact match..vette wheels have a 121mm stud pattern and the camaro has a 120mm pattern..they will fit , but they tweak the studs just a hair,..you will have no problem as the camaro studs are 14mm in size and , have plenty of strength..but when racing, i would retorque after every run, it is not unheard of them loosening...takes 2 minutes and your car is cooling anyhow..

Just ordered some off Amazon. I'm gonna use them next saturday(as long as their here in time) then look into having the holes machined so they bolt up correctly.

Yes that's the thread... Was running it by my Dad for next year as he keeps waring the DR out on stock rims. Could they be swapped at home then drive to the track with the 18's with the stock 20's in the front?

Yeah you can drive with the 20's up front and the 18's out back. Just make sure the tire height for the rear is within factory. Let's say you get the 18x10.5 wheels, the tire that you should run would be 305/45/18 or 315/45/18.

here is a thread on recommended tire sizes: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=62838
