Yes, totally normal. It’s to prevent wheel hop under full throttle acceleration. 1st gen CTS-V had it bad...Now all Vettes, CTS-Vs and I assume most Camaros have this.

I seem to remember my 2010 SS was that way too as well as my 2017 ZL1.

On the 5th gen ZL1's, one is solid and smaller diameter, while the other is a larger diameter but hollow.
I don't remember the physics behind it, but they did it to reduce wheel hop. |
