Pedders USA was running 305's at all 4 corners and there car was lowered. You'll need wheels with the correct offset to do this, but it can be done. I know Forgeline can build the wheels to do this and I'm sure there are other company's out there too, just not sure which ones.

Only the Z28 is running 305's with its 19x11 front, the ZL1 is on 285's with a 20x10 front

I am running 305's on 19x11 front and 19x11.5 rears. Can be done with the right wheel.

I run 19x11 on all four corners and I have run 305's all the way around. You'll need to spec the wheel correctly but fitment is not an issue.



Please feel free to call, email or PM us anytime with questions.

Kind regards,

Hey this is good advice, but will it still applie since his car is lowered 1.5 inches . My 2010 Camaro SS is lowered 1 in I had 275/40/20’s but soon found they would rub under the strut. So the springs are Hotchkiss so I ordered the half inch spacer for the front hoping I can either go back to the 275’s or go wider. Any predictions on which way to go since car is lowered. I too would like to run a 305-30-20 and the rim shoould be 10.5 or ?
Thanks ahead of time.
