2017 Camaro SS 1LE, White, PDR, 8800k miles

I am looking to get rid of my lease on my Chevy Camaro SS 1LE. This lease is under an employee discount, so you will be hard pressed to find a better deal with this many miles still left on the car....

Oh yea woof :thumbdown:. Most dealers have discretion in terms of MF of ~.0005. Usually no movement in residuals as those are set through the leasing company.

But if this discussion continues...

The one thing that you are correct on is the mile limitation on a lease. You are charged a fee of $.025 for every mile over. The caveat is when you don't worry about miles on a car that is owned,...

On the contrary, I've been quoted as low as .00082 MF (1.96%) in Q3/Q4 2015 when the new F80/82 M3/M4 was coming out. Today their MF hovers around 0.0012-0.0013 (2.88%-3.12%). As a comparison, my...

So with no money down it's ~$435/mo (2.8k/48mo= ~$58.33+int+375). Hard to say without knowing the residual, actual negotiated price of the car, and money factor though. Anyone can beat the deal if...

Nope. It will rub at full steering lock, and may possibly hit the strut on the front, unless you get a lot of clearance with the right offset.

Agreed. Your best bet will be to keep 10" on the corners. They'll have almost an additional 2" of clearance in the rear. However, the rears will stick out 10mm more than the 11" OE wheels.

Out of curiosity, what is the clearance in front with the 10" wheel? If you need 1.5" for the 11", sounds like the front is hairs away from the strut. My math tells me based on your observation...

Forgot to add: the wheel will also stick out another inch further than the current 10" with my recommendation, or ~ 0.5" without the spacer, but I don't know if it will clear the strut.

From everything given, this is a horrible deal still, because joe schmo is in the $700 range. We don't even know mileage.

Without seeing other comparable offers, I would say take it. Seems alright, and the interest is attractive. Residuals will continue to rise in the coming months as more cars hit dealer lots.
