yeah I think they'll do! omg so much better than these steelies!

Good looking wheels! Is the tire size 275/40R20? If so, that'll be the stock height (and the same size tire used on the RS and SS Camaro) and won't affect the speedometer. Also, no need to get an alignment unless you notice the car drifting to one side more than the other or uneven tire wear. Only thing you have to do is reprogram the tire pressure sensors.

Angel! where have you been! yeah they re 275/40R20 all around. I'll drive around and see how the car is acting. if it doesn't feel right I'll take it in

and I was wondering how the TPS was reprogramed. do I turn the car on and go through my menu screen, find the tire pressure and press that button that re-sets it all?

That may work but for other GM vehicles you have to put the key in the ignition, turn it to the battery on position and hold the unlock and lock button on the key at the same time till the horn sounds. Once you hear it you let go of the key and have to either raise or lower the tire pressure by about 10 seconds. A chirp of the horn will go off when you can stop filling/emptying the tire and the brake lights/turn singles will let you know the order you need to go in.

I have never done this on the Camaro, so I am not 100% sure if it will work but it has worked on several of the GM cars we have owned before.

I lurk in the shadows. Cool, your speedometer will be accurate then (and more accurate than they are now. If I remember correctly, the speedo was more accurate for the short time that I had RS wheels/tires on my car).

Here's how you reprogram the TPMS:

At 60 mph, it'll only be different by 0.1 mph than what it says now, according to my calculation. No biggie.

Let us know if the TPMS reset doesn't work for you! Apparently some 2012's and later Camaros don't have the option of resetting without a special tool.

I am glad I am too poor for new rims and tires. This is going over my head and is too stressful

Oh yeah, with the 275/40/20's you'd almost never know it's off, those are 28.7" tall.

Ok ya'll twisted my arm, I went out and made a crappy idle and 3k rev video of the new axleback on my car...

This is what occurred with me. It didn't work at all, I went to my dealership and it took them 10 seconds.
