Need help with rim/tire ordering - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Looking to get the weld Ventura rims and tires that would fit my car. My car is on peddlers coil overs and lowered an inch. Looking at 18x10.5 for the rear and 18x8 for the front. Stock rear suspension for now but will install bmr parts in the future. My question is what is the bolt pattern and back spacing for ordering the rims?

Rear tires would be MT ET street 305/45 or 305/35??
Front tires would be (don’t know which brand yet maybe nitto invo) 245/50 ??

Those tires would fit no problem ? Any other recommendations for tires? It’s a weekend street car that I drive hard at times and have fun in.

I just bought some 17" Laguna Beadlock S907's 5x120- Offset / Backspace 42/7.15" I haven't fit them yet but they will be tight. I see the size you picked only come in 120.65 This ".65 mm" difference has been debated in length here. The only thing I can suggest is contact Shawn Pixler. He was a great help to me & should be able to sort it out for you.

Thank you I will contact him. I like the Laguna drag d152 rims also and they come in 18x10 and 18x8 too

Acutron thank you so much. That guy was extremely helpful and I wound up ordering RTS-S71. They are currently 10%off plus an additional 10% for being a veteran. Still came out to $3,500 with taxes but saved almost a grand with the 2 discounts.
He emailed me back and forth quickly and was really polite and helped me out a lot. Now just gotta see what lug nuts and tires sizes to get.

Went with 18x8 up front and 18x10.5 rear.

That is awesome. Glad it went well! I was surprised @ how much time he took to help me. Usually these tech people rush you off the phone. We had a good 20 minute conversation about my car & my future plans. That kind of service is almost unheard of these days.

I agree. For such a big company it’s great to have great customer service still. Plus everything is made in the USA which is a plus!!! Was reading the story about them and he started in his garage making rims to fit his needs.
