Specific offset question URGENT - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hey guys so I will be ordering rims this weekend and I am confused about the offsets. The plan is that I will be running 315's on the rear with a 20x10.5 wheel. The offsets offered with the 10.5's are 20 and 40. Will that have clearance? I have stock 1LT brakes with the metal caliper covers on them. If I need to take the covers Off I won't care in order to fit the wheel. Now the offsets offered for the 20x9 are 15 and 35. So if needed I will run the 20x9's up front. But my heart is really set on the 315's on the back so that means 20x10.5 with either 20 or 40 offset. I am hoping to run the fronts with 20x10.5 wheels and 285 tires, but if I ned to run 20x9 with either 15 or 35 offset I will do so with a smaller tire. I am also looking to lower my car 1.5 inches. Again any help is appreciated and I really need your guys's help. Thanks very much!

You definitely need the 40et rears. as for the fronts i would do 35et but you should make sure the 35et will clear your caliper system. 15 i think is to low especially considering your future plans of lowering the car.
best fit with most rubber will be the 35et front and a 40et rear.
