Anyone running 19" wheels daily? Or how about z06 or grand sport wheels? - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I have 18x10 all the way around. Lighter smaller wheels equals better acceleration, better handling, better stopping, better gas mileage, better tire selection, cheaper tires, ect.

What are the specs on your wheels and tires bro? Where in Texas you located? Any more pix?

will post pictures of my Apex 19"wheels later. Going from 28+" wheels to 26" wheels with the same drive train results in lower top end speed for the same distance traveled. I miss this now with my 19"wheel setup. One remedy is to install a L99 rear end to regain those long legs the stock SS or Z28 has. Handling wise I am thinking of Apex 18x11"rear and 10.5"front with Nitto Nt01 305-35-18s.
