It is bolted on and does spin.

First one: Note only a few mm clearance to caliper.



Rear clearance: Only a finger and a half fits behind

So depending on your level of comfort, steelies with spacers might work. Personally, I wasn't comfortable, so I coughed up the cash for a new set of 18's.
Thanks for doing this research, Still new to this, do you think those steelies would fit on a 2LT RS without brembos?

I just posted something on this:

Short answer: you would be able to bolt them up but I doubt you would like the result unless you also used 25mm spacers.

We have lots of winter wheel options. Please contact me if I can help you place an order or if you have questions. I have been selling winter set ups on these cars from 2010 on and know what works well for these cars.

For anyone else trying to run steel wheels here's what I did:


- 4 Camaro steelies from FB marketplace (Look on FB marketplace, mine were $100)
- 2x5mm spacer
- 2x3mm spacer
- TPMS sensors + Tool off Amazon (~$60 + $10)
245/50R18 Snow tires (225/55R18 will also work, 235/50R18 will be slightly smaller)

Mounting the wheels at the front it tight so I went with a 3mm spacer(2mm should work too but 3mm was easier to find).

without spacer:


Front struct clearance is fine:


For the rear you must run a 5mm spacer otherwise the caliper will get damaged. I've driven the car for over a month now and I haven't had any issues with rubbing.
