ZL1 1LE Winter Tires

Can I please get a suggestion on what size winter tires to use on the 2020 ZL1 1LE , as I plan on driving mine through winter on those clear days once I take delivery

There aren't any that fit the OEM size.

The best you can do is an "all season tire" in 305s on all four corners.

If you get a second set of wheels that are skinnier, then you can get narrower tires.

it might be cheaper to actually buy a winter beater.

any 5th gen or 6th gen SS car with 20" will work. I say the SS only due to them being able to clear the brakes. then to keep the same tire diameter it needs to be a 245/35r20

this is a good tool to help

MICHELIN Alpin PA4 winter tires…The front are 275/30/20 and the back are 295/30/20


They do make the size needed for your ZL1 LE

Expensive, but fit right on stock rims... I am in Winnipeg, they are amazing, no problems...

nope, not in 19s, the TIRE on the ZL1-1LE is 12 and 12.8" wide which means they have to be on a 11 an 12" wheel

he could buy the "normal ZL1" wheels and then use those sizes in a 20" wheel.

That's not an option

I have a spare set of SS 20 inch wheels, could I run a squared set up with that? Or do I still need staggered?

Are those wheels all the same? Normally they where like 8" wide front and 9" rear and they have a different offset from each other.

You can run the same size tire on the wheels as long as you check the manufacturers requirement on Rim size. Which means you have to choose a size that fits with, which isn't hard to find.

BUT IF THE WHEELS ARE DIFFERENT WIDTHS AND DIFFERENT OFFSETS, YOU STILL CANT ROTATE THE TIRES. JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT CLEAR. people think differently when you say a "square" setup

This is actually why I'm not getting the 1LE package on mine...when I trade in the SCAT charger...I live near ATL, so we do get cold weather. I couldn't find a decent tire for the 1LE that would work in the winter, or all-seasons.
