New wheels causing problems
I`ve just put a set of oem y2k wheels on my 99 camaro z28. The tyre pressure is 30 psi all round.
Since putting them on the steering feels very twitchy and is affected by every bump. Its made it quite hard to drive.
What could be causing this?

I can hear that a rear tyre on one side rubs slightly on a hard corner or hard bump. Need to do the BFH mod to inner fender. The wheels and tyres were stock before, now I`ve got 245/45/17 and 275/40/18.

Just for fun....recheck the torque on your lug nuts.
You should do that as standard practice when removing and reinstalling wheels.
Put them on, take the car around the block, then recheck the nuts.

please tell me I'm not the only one to see a red flag here
245 45 17 that's SEVENTEEN and 275 40 17 again, SEVENTEEN are almost the same tire height
If you really are running 245 45 17s and 275 40 18's then you are an inch higher in the rear
was that your intent?

2: the rear tire height is taller than stock so your speedometer is affected and your gear ratio got taller by a wee bit
