The camaro has 275/40/r17 on front and 295/35/r18 on back. And I don't know how I feel about the sidewall thickness diff between them. I don't get to rotate either but, don't put many miles on it.

Guess it really don't matter. what y'all think? Still looks good but, I just feel the thicker sidewall belongs in back to me.

your rear tires a 1/2 in shorter than the front, thats 1/4" top and bottom...can you really see it? Last I checked it only took relocating your rear bumpstop and maybe an adjustable panhard bar, possible fender lip rolling to fit 315/35/17 which would be the same size as your front tires.

I think I have a combination now.

Front:225/45/18
Rear:255/35/20 or wider 295/30/20

That would put the 18s sidewall .5” taller than the 20s.

No you really can't see it to say. I just NEED to get used to it. Lol. I a always get complements when I drive it. So it's probably just me it bothers. Lol

I run a 8"x 20" in the front and a 9.5"x 20 in the rear on my 72 Cheyenne. Falken Ziex tires all around....245/45 on the front and 275/40 on the rear. I believe that kept things pretty close to the original diameter of the stock tire size so my speedo is still accurate. I'm not that worried about rotating them since it is not a DD.

I have a set of 1" drop coils I need to do up front so the front will be 1/2 inch lower than the rear.
