I personally don't like the look of anything bigger than 20" on the Camaros and even most other cars and trucks. The wheels gave gotten almost too big this day and age. The bigger the wheel the heavier they are too, increasing the rolling mass and hurting performance. 20's are fine on the Camaro and anything bigger just looks terrible to me.

I especially dislike the larger wheels on trucks- even from the factory. My 97 Wrangler has 15" wheels with 31 X 10.50-15 tires and I think it looks way better than any modern Wrangler today. More beefy, less wheel protrusion on the trails and it rides really nice on the road. Cars yes a slightly bigger wheel is fine, but why trucks?

Is just a huge difference in market, for those trying to maintain or add better performance to the vehicles a lighter wider wheel is always best, I have seen corvette owners do 21" rears 20" fronts and is mainly looks which simply takes away from the performance of the vehicle.
same with Camaros 20" is the main mark but for those with track set up's and depending on the needs they go with 19" and just like that you have other camaros and actually other cars like Mustangs as well that for straight drag performance they do a 18" rear to get a proper slick on.
is all about what you want to do with your car
do you want looks with a over size wheel or do you prefer performance??

I agree with this. What do I want though? I want it all...lol. I know it's technically impossible, but I wouldn't mind giving up a few milliseconds of track times (which I don't go to even though I have over 800whp) for a better looking wheel setup. If my car was a dedicated track car, I'd go with 19's or even 18"s all day long. But it's not, it's my all around toy car and giving up a little on one end to gain some on the other is fine by me.

Does anyone have a 21" wheel setup? I'd like to see how that looks.

I have 21” on my 5th Gen used as daily set for 500 miles.
21” from Dusk model Camaro.
I have 2014 1LE and had to buy 2 full sets as to use 4 rears on all 4 corners.
21” X 9.5”
The fronts didn’t fit offset wise.
21” X 8.5”
I’m selling both sets as I now have another set of ZL1 wheels for track.

5th gen also came factory with MUCH taller tires.

21 is hard to buy tires for and wheels lol

Ditto. Especially if you add a splitter like we did.

I had a 2015 and I did lower it by 1" with Eibach springs but this gen 6 chassis setup is great. I did go to 295 on the rear rubber but otherwise I wouldn't change a thing.

I get the lack of tire options though, it certainly is an issue.

Just cross your fingers they fit your Camaro.

Hell yeah! Thank you! I will certainly give those a shot.
