19" camaro wheels

[Stridan]

Just picked up a set of 19x8 camaro wheels. Going to take care of the hub bore issue but now I am second guessing my tires sizes have picked out. I read somewhere on here that you should NOT go larger then 27" tall. Thinking about a few options for all the way around same size....

____________255/40/19____245/40/19_____255/35/19____245/50/16
..............................Tire 1..................Tire 2..................Tire 3....................OEM
Diameter...............27".....................26.7"....................26"......................25.6"
Width....................10.04"................9.65"..................10.04"...................9.65"
Sidewall................4.02".................3.86"...................3.51"....................4.82"
Circumference......84.9..................83.9.....................81.7.....................80.5
Revs/Mile.............746.5................755.3...................775.3...................786.8



and for a staggered set up if the tire shop wants to fight it on...dont think 285 will fit on 19"x8" wheel

Looking at the Pirelli P zero nero tires.... any opinion of Mich, Goodyr, any others? This is not a daily, just a Friday to work and weekend fun. I live in Austin, TX and it is around 100F degrees for 6 months out of the year.... super hot asphalt usually kills performance tires fast with normal driving....

currently rolling OEM and set of ss/zr1(non staggered) 17"x9" with 275/40/17 all the way around.

I think those wheels might actually look good on a SyTy. If it were me I would run the 255/35 combo all the way around in a Nitto NT555. I have them in a 17 and I really like them.

Re: 19" camaro wheels

Those do look nice.

Is the Camaro bolt pattern slightly different than ours?

120MM VS 120.65MM?

Re: 19" camaro wheels

These are mine with 275's...I'll have better pics in a couple weeks after the body and paint are all done. Oh and think about doing all the same size.....it means you can rotate them.....just my 2 cents....I did the different sizes.....there's a price to pay to look kewl. And your getting closer to the cladding...
