Trying to pull together a winter tire setup for my 2019 SS (not 1LE). Snowing today! I already have tires: Blizzak WS80 - Size: 245/50R18


Looking at these. Was about to pull the trigger, but their customer care said they "wouldn't fit over large Brembos." The fitment software on the website said OK.

Thoughts?

Yeah...winging it isn't exactly what I'm looking for, unless you're being sarcastic.



Big Brembos? Stock SS Brembos...Is that big?

Front:
Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 11.4mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 1.3mm less than before.


Back:
Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 38.1mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out the same as before.

Don’t drive a Camaro in the winter is my only thought..
You get snow like we do, just not happening here, 4 WD time.

Don't get snow every day. Driving it every day I can.

It’s not the snow so much as the salt, a High HP RWD car on 4 wide tires is a recipe for disaster with poor handling.
Tall and narrow for a little overnight NY lake effect snow

Yeah...don't think I'd be taking the car in that snow! Have skinnier winter tires for the SS. Grew up driving rear wheel drive cars in MN. Not concerned as long as I get these stock summer tires off and my Blizzaks on. Bought the car to drive it whenever I can. Winter is too long in MN to let it sit!


Heated seats, heated steering wheel, remote start for a toasty car when I jump in. Bringing a tear to my eye right now.

Feel like I'm the only guy who grew up in New York and only ever drove High horsepower rear wheel drive cars. And absolutely none of them had the assist we have on today's modern cars. :-)
