Default Tires and Wheels

I'm looking at some ZR1 wheels with a 5x4.75 bolt pattern and was wondering if they would fit on my Camaro. They also have Kumho tires on (Solus?) Anyone have anything to say about those particular tires?

they should. how wide are rims? only problem i would see is if it is to deep, mite hit spring. but you can buy spacer's if need be.

ok so, the Solus's are all season tires.. IMO i would get a nice set of summer tires for the ZR1 rims, and buy a set of studded tires for your current rims, if you DD it in winter.
here's the Tires:

edit - theres more than just the one type of solus, but they're all pretty much the same basic design, and all are all season tires.

Thanks, ya I'm not too sure which type of Solus they are. The ZR1s are 16x8 so I'm assuming they're replicas?

i dunno about being replicas... but i thought vette rims were atleast 9.5 for rears. lol.
if they are only 8inch wide, i wouldnt worry about them not fitting.

edit - offset is important too, but vette and camaro offsets are fairly close.

True ZR1/SS wheels are 17x9.5 or 17x11 they do make the right off set so you can run the 11" in the rear.
