2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

[Dentguy]

Mounted mine today and am up in the air about the look. Hoping they grow on me a bit!

[freonfreak]

What size of tires can I use for 2012 camaro wheels on my 1982 gmc truck? Any suggestions?

[school boy]

I believe they come with 245/45/20 and 275/40/20. Really also depends how low your truck is.

[freonfreak]

Is that what you have on yours?

[school boy]

yes

[jadedbird]

Nice

alright my truck is pretty much just like school boys i got 1.75 in the back and 1.5 in the front and the front wheels dont go all the way to the adapter maybe half a inch. did yall have to do anything to get past that?

Do you have some pictures? Did you try the adapters on the rims to make sure they would mount correctly?

Don't have any pictures right now. But the wheel is hitting on the rotor hub. I have the heavy duty rotors and was wondering if that's why it's hitting. Is there a difference between 1 inch rotors and 1.25?the adapter fit wheel great. Adaptec brand. Gonna grind the hubs down some tonight and see what I can do

[school boy]

I used 2" thick spacers front and back

[C10Coy]

i grinded the inside of wheels and hubs and they fit now. idk how to post pictures or i would of it done.

i would definitely sport those camaro wheels. they look great.

i've got a set of 2002-2004 silverado ss wheels on my 87 k10 (v1500) and i love 'em.

Ran across a set of these wheels pretty cheap about a month ago. They were flaking and had some pretty serious curb rash. I took them to my powdercoat guy and he fixed them up for me. Its hard to photograph but they have a ton of flake in them and really shine/sparkle in the sun.

I had to roll my front fenders, I also have a degree or two of positive camber I can dial back to help. If your really low, these probably aren't the best wheels to get. They have the stock camaro sizes on them now (245/45 and 275/40) I'm going to have to switch to a 245/40 up front as I bottom out on the inner fender still at bridges and large dips in the road. I'll have to see how I feel about them after a few weeks to see if they stay around or not...

I'm just not a fan of factory wheels in general. Something about a wheel that when I see and recognize that it is off of a different car turns me off.

They are the stock camaro centers, I peeled the metal part with the embossed bowtie off, covered them with silver vinyl an then made a GMC decal to go on that.

This pretty cool guy I know helped me out with that...

[school boy]

Wow, thing thread keeps popping up!
Yea, the stock Camaro tires are a little tall with a really low truck at 28" tall. I hit my inner fenders quite often.

now now cameltoe white letters are cool on old trucks way cooler than trucks that are lower than cars lol ..... just a poke

[77shorty]

Those camaro rims look awesome, great idea......dang! Keep them!

[xylorex]

This is what the Silverado SS wheels look like.... yeah, yeah - i know about the tires they dont look right. When these wear down i'm replacing them with some BFG all terrains.

I know this is an old post but what drop do you have on your truck?I just put the same wheels on my 74 stepper. Im lowered 5" in the front and I think Im going to have to roll my lip on drivers side but passenger side seems to have clearance for some reason??? Im thinking I should have used a 1.5" spacer instead of 2"
