Stance is much improved.

The new wheels are badass, I am loving how concave they are. Definately worthy successors to the 5th gen black 10 spokes.

What a beast. GM outdoes themselves with their stock wheel designs. Love these new wheels.

SS 1LE · 01-07-2016, 09:13 AM

Wow, those wheels and fat tires look great. It looks like a decent size wing is lurking under there too...

I HOPE the 1LE has the same wheel/tire setup.

They look like the black version of one of the SEMA cars. Bad a$$!

No, they are definitely a different design...

Seems like GM is sold on the split 5 spoke design.

The Mystery Camaro shows what proper fitting tires can do to a car. They look like they are still tucked in a little front the fenders.

Those are the measurements I want for my Rims. Throwing on last years Rim/Tires just because they fit good enough is not the way to go.

Would those tires fit on the SS or does this car have a different body that allows those wider tires up front and in the rear without rubbing?

Jeffro19 · 01-07-2016, 10:13 AM

Awesome. Glad to see more pics. Love the wheels. Nice fat tires as well. Those exhaust pipes look huge! Can't wait for the reveal.

DenverTaco07 · 01-07-2016, 10:29 AM

The front rotors are big, must be 6 piston to handle all that.

Also, don't think this bodes well for a January 11 reveal as I was hoping.

Looks like 6 piston calipers with two piece rotors.

The 11th could be the coupe ZL1 and 1LE, or maybe another Corvette model.

The clearance in the wheel wells shouldn't be different. For the 5th gen, ZL1 wheels were capable of being swapped into a non ZL1. They did this with the 1LE package. A company named Factory Reproductions made replica 5th gen ZL1 rims in various dimensions. I got them in the standard dimensions of the ZL1, and they were fine on my SS. You obviously need to buy the appropriate tire sizes though if going with a wider set of rims.
