I would be okay with that, if It was a couple inches lower as well.

I would certainly think so. The Z/28 ran 19's . . .

Getting 1/2" lower without affecting suspension geometry at all has to be a good thing. Might get another fraction of an inch lower than that with the right wheel width and a careful 19" tire choice and still not affect the geometry.


It's not quite the same thing, but the car in my sig now runs on tires that are about an inch shorter than stock (no matter which set is mounted). I wouldn't ever go back to an OE-height tire for that car unless I absolutely had no other option.

Though, it's not because of where I live.

I'll be able to share (and so will other media outlets) pictures of the car, and any information they provide (like price, equipment, and performance figures), plus the answers to questions I ask those designers and engineers present.

So, pretty much everything I know.

Have any predetermined questions you want to reveal? Probably just the obvious stuff right?

Please not only ask about the MSRP, but also ask if this will be available with the other 2017's right off the bat, not a late addition. I want to order mine asap...

All from you guys, here on Camaro6.com

I'll be asking,

When can customers order one?
Will Recaro seats be available?
Is an electronic LSD included?
Can customers order Mag Ride as option?
Is it possible to retrofit the MRC system if it's not an option?
MSRP?
Is it going to be "Track Capable"?
What is it's lap times?
Why did you reveal the 1LE "first" this time?


Obviously, some of those will be answered before I can ask. But I'll also ask some design questions depending on what they include with the car...downforce questions, etc. A lot depends on what they show and tell.
