I am highly considering the same setup on my Camaro LT1 except with Continental DWS06+ tires. Did you have to do anything with the wheel wiring harness?

I see that you drive a 2020 SS so it looks like it is still necessary.

I'm thinking 285/35 square. The diameter would only be a 0.2" difference between that and stock. A 305/35 would be 0.7" from...

Is wire harness relocation necessary on newer Camaros?

I'm hearing that wire harness relocation is not necessary on 2020 and later Camaros when running wider tires while some are saying it is. Anyone know what is the case?

Awesome. Anyone here with MRR M017? Curious how comparable these replicas are to the 1LE OEM wheels. They look the same, but is there much difference?

Wheel advice needed

I see. It appears that 275/35R20 and 305/30R20 would work for me with DWS06 Plus. Tirerack states that the diameter of the stock Goodyear A/S runflats are 27.7" and DWS06 Plus even in those sizes is...

Thoughts on MRR M017 on LT1?

I have a '23 Camaro LT1 and I want to get wider wheels in the future. I wanted to go with a 285 square setup, but many are recommending a staggered setup.


What are your thoughts on these wheels...

So I have a '23 Camaro LT1 and one of the things many recommend is upgrading the rear wheels to at least 275. I currently have the stock 245s all around and plan on swapping all the stock tires with...

I appreciate the recommendation. Sounds like a good tire, but from what most tell me from all over, they recommend the Continental DWS 06+. I feel that this tire has built up a better reputation.

I believe the tire setup on the SS if I'm not mistaken is 245 front and 275 back. The LT1 is 245 on both front and rear. Do you believe there will be noticeable benefit switching from 245 to 275 on...
