Lowered and lower profile tires - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

There are so many variations out there...hard to find a good pic.
Want to lower my 2010 SS 1" and go with 275/35/20 square. I have stock 9" rims all around. Doing the math, it seems I'll defeat my purpose and end up with pretty much the same wheel well gap.
Anyone have a good pic of this?

My car with 1” drop front and rear with stock 3/8” rake. Tires are 285/35/20 on 20x10.5” wheels. Your tires will have about .15” more gap. And mine stick out more so fills Wells more.

1” drop with OEM 20x9 wheels with 275/40’s at all fours

Thanks. To get the look I want I may have to change wheels. I really like the stock rims...but not into spacers to push the offset.
Oh well, I'll get the suspension work done first and see what I have.
