I think the rears will be ok but the front you might have to cut into the steering knuckle or might get away without cutting by adding a 5mm soacer.

People have done it before many times over the years.

SS 1LE 20" are a direct bolt on. ZL1 1LE 19" wheels are direct bolt on the rear but fronts require a small spacer 3-5mm to clear the strut

Without citing another post, anyone have any real hands on experience swapping in a set of 19 ZLEs? I've read what others have posted but there were a few who have stated so long as you don't deviate from stock alignment, it will not rub. Than others who have stated you simply need to add a spacer or trim out the strut and relocate a sensor iirc.

I mean, the post is correct. The rears are fine but the fronts you either need to add a spacer (if you want to get more camber) or cut the steering knuckle. Relocating the rear sensor is a good measure since it takes a few minutes to do so and you wouldn't want it to get cut and stop your car from starting.

That's because the ZL1 1LE rims are 1 inch wider in the front and rear. But you have more space in the rear so accommodate the tire.

You will spend more money for the 19 inch tires but that’s your decision to make.

Ok then how about - keeping and running 20 - 325's in the back on the stock ZL1 rims ...? and leave the front alone...?

315 is the biggest you will want to go on an 11 inch wheel.

325's

KEEPING the 20's and ...

I was told I can run Toyo Proxies R888R's 325/30/20 on rear 20x11's if that's not correct then quite a few people would be wrong including the tire shop.

I was also told I can move the 305's up front ... is that BS as well...?

Just Google what the biggest tire you can fit on a 11 inch rim. 315 is the max. Have people run bigger? Yes, just as long as you're not trying to take turns like the ZL1 is meant to take, then you'll more than likely will be ok.

305s up front will fit but not ideally on a 10" rim. I would think you'd have to run a spacer to offset the tire rubbing against the steering knuckle.

There is a tire section on the forum. I would venture over there and see what people are doing with their Camaro's there.

I had 325's on the back of my 2021 Mach 1 on 19x11 inch wheels (stock was 315) never had an issue fit fine on the wheel - I suspect there won't be any issue's here real or imagined...

Then just do it. You won't find validation here.
