I’m a little worried about the lowered suspension kit adversely affecting the ride quality of the more structurally flexible LT1 vert, and I’m sure I’ll want to add a more aggressive wheel-and-tire combination. Any thoughts?
Well I can get back to you after the install to confirm but my expectations are that YES the car will have a firmer ride but certainly nowhere near the dump truck ride quality you get with a zl1 1LE suspension.

As far as wheels go, I would check out APEX wheels at www.apexraceparts.com You cant do any better than Michelin Sport 4S tires so I would stick with those. Check out APEX's fitment guide on their website. I am a firm believer in a rotatable wheel and tire setup better known as a SQUARE set up. The 305 30 19 tires and APEX 19 x 10.5 wheels are the largest ROTATABLE configuration you can have on a SS without having tire poke issues. A more conservative 285 30 19 tires on 19 x 10 inch wheels works great also.
