are the new camaros still 5x4.75 or did you have to drill the axle flanges?
i really dig smaller wheels on the new camaro.
the stock wheels are just too big, imo, leaving too small of a sidewall.
what tire is on the back?

The Camaro is a 5 x 4.725, so they bolt up with out issue. The tire is an NT555R 305/45/18 but I have some inner fender rubbing due to the wrong offset. These rims have a +56 offset and you really need a +40 like the C6 Z06 front rims. I'm looking into spacers.

Have you experienced any vibration issues running the 5-4.75 offset?

All you guys running the 15x4 skinnies, how they fitting the with the big calipers, you running spacers or grinding the caliper or both?

I would really like to run the 15x4 and 15x10 on my 67 camaro conversion, Rear has been mini tubbed and I have the LS1 brakes front and rear. Currently have TT2s 17x10 (6.75BS) and 17x7.

Was going for the pro tour look but have a change in direction and want race more then street drive and really like the 15 wide and skinny look.

Did some searching but cant find a specific this is what i did so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
