2LT 19 Inch Wheels on an SS??? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Will a 19 inch 2LT wheel clear the SS brake calipers? Looking for a stylish winter option for a wheel. I know I can go to tirerack or tiresdirect for wheels and tires but looking for a factory solution without running the 20's all year. I'm currently running all season General GMax on my 20's.

No, the 19s will not clear the Brembos.

YEP that's true

Think I read somewhere that you need a 5mm spacer plate on the front wheels to clear Brembo's.

19" will clear rears. I can't say for sure on the fronts. As others have said I have heard spacers needed for fronts.

I'm running 30mm hubcentric bolt on spacers and heritage 18" steel wheels on my 2010 for the winter, without the roller skates and without removing the caliper weights either

did you need to put spacers on both front and rear? also what size tire?
