make sure to do 30 and not 35 alot of these cars do not like them especially if you mix and match tire sizes

What tire size were you able to fit on those rears? im aiming to get 325s on mine, don't know what size wheel i'll need for it

Since these M228's are the same size and offset on the 5th and 6th gen ZL1's and 1LE's and will also fit the SS, I am running 20x11 +43 rears and had 335/30's on there and had about 3/4th" clearance still and could have ran a 345 if I wanted to, but I took them off because I didn't like the looks of the 30's sidewall. You might have to zip tie your harness and or e brake cable to do that.

Oh wow that's a good sign thanks!

Would you happen to know if these will fit fine, i'm so illiterate when it comes to wheel specs, these are 19's

front: https://www.apexraceparts.com/shop-b...aro-wheel.html

Rear: https://www.apexraceparts.com/shop-b...aro-wheel.html

and do you suggest I go with 10 inch wide in front and 11 in the back instead?

Edit: I think im actually gonna do 10 front 11 rear

^^^ these look to be ok for fitment on your year, but I'm not sure because I have only been researching the M228 sizes and offsets. Some one else is looking at these same wheels in a thread below this one. I would call APEX directly and make sure before you plunk down the cash. They do look pretty nice though!! Good luck. And if you go 10 front and 11 rear with the correct offset, you can run 315's with no problem.

I ran the stock SS 1LE sizes, 285/30R20 front and 305/30R20 rear. Depending on the tire you might be able to get away with fitting a 325 on an 11" wheel, but you really will want to check the tire manufacturer's website for that. They should list somewhere what the recommended wheel widths are for a given tire and size. As for what size tire you can fit and not have rubbing issues I'm not of much use, but like 1JEWLDSSRS mentioned you might need to relocate some wiring harnesses behind the fender liner to avoid rubbing.

For the wheels you posted, they can fit with some caveats. Check out the Apex fitment guide for details.

Well the new car is home and I squeezed the trigger on the rims. With not much experience with tpms sensors is there anything I need to look out for? Should I go gm? Will aftermarket work? Anything I need to be aware of?
