19s front 20s back? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I was thinking about different wheel sizes/looks and thought that 19in wheels on the front and 20in in the back would look nice. Kinda like the Camaro concept of the 5th gen had I think 20s front and 22s back. The Corvette also has a similar stagger wheel setup with 19s front and 20s back I believe.

Has anybody have pictures with this setup?
How would this handle different? - I have 20x9 squared right now.

Is your car lowered at all?

All Corvette's have this set up... I was actually just wondering this exact question the other day. 19s front 20s rear.

It shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure that the tires overall height is the same, most likely not so you will need to adjust the ecu so it knows it's different as well think you ate just spinning the wheels and it will toss codes like service stabilitytrack

We don't recommend that people do that on these cars.
The thing that you have to remember is that on the Corvette the fender openings are different. On the Camaro they aren't.
So you have one of 2 options:
1. Have the heights of the tires the same, which is correct on these cars. Except the front tire will have more sidewall then the back tire. Which will look weird.
2. Run a shorter tire in the front so the sidewall height is the same front and rear. Except you will end up with more fender gap in the front.

Would getting a split drop fix the gap difference? If it does I still think it's too much of a hassle doing it.
