Hey guys I searched in the sticky's and really couldnt find a definite answer on this. Will 18x9 rebel wheels with a 25mm offset fit the front of a camaro without rubbing? I've seen them on t/a's and they a[[ear to not really have issues but I have heard of some rubbing with a 275 tire vs no rubbing with a 245 tire. Does anyone have some experience with running these on a camaro?

Do they even make the AR Rebel anymore? I was under the impression that wheel was discontinued. If I remember right, 275's on the front would rub. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

No they don't make them anymore the ones I'm looking at are used and ya I heard 275s would run but 245s were ok?

People run em, but the fronts do stick out of the front wheel well on a Camaro.

Have you seen pictures showing this? I'm not trying to say you are wrong or anything...as the wheels he is talking about are mine. I just want to be sure when I do sale these, either to the OP or someone else I want to make sure they will not have a problem.

I've seen a couple of users on here that have them on camaro's but the only good side shots I've seen has been from ChoiceCam00 and they didn't appear to stick out on his Camaro. I know they looked great on my TA and didn't stick out any, but of course Camaro fenders are shaped a little differently and each car might be a little different.

Here is ChoiceCam00's album...hopefully he doesn't mind.

Thanks guys from what I've seen people don't have issues on the Camaros as long as they use 245 tires. Pewterta, I pmed those guys I'm just waiting to hear what they have to say bu I looks like the wheels will probably be ok being they run them. My tires are starting to hydroplane in the rain so I need to know about these wheels soon haha

I've seen them in person . . . and they do in deed stick out. As stated 245's will "decrease" the sticking out look / issue.

No they don't make em anymore but I think Jegs and maybe Summit still sells em but it's just what stock they have left over but idk what the odds are of them being the size you need though.

thanks guys ya if pewterta and I can work a deal were both happy with I'll get the rims and run a 245 tire on the front and that should take care of any rubbing the only issues Ive heard were with 275 tires so we will see

thanks for the pics man, just wondering i know rebel wheels are a little on the heavy side did you notice any difference in track times or anything with the heavier wheels

Verz

iTrader: (21)

they are quite hefty, i havent got a chance to take it to the track either way but the looks do outweigh the weight penalty so far

Ya that's what I hear lol they look even better in person that the pics also from what I've been told. They weigh the same as ttIIs and a lot of people run those so how bad can it be. Can u feel the difference

Ok so a friend is "borrowing" my wheels for the day and snapped a couple quick sell pics of them on his camaro. As you can see the wheels with 265s just barely peek out before the car settles, but once it fully settled back in they were good.

Thats my car and I finally got the rears on. Crazy busy today at work. After they settled, They don't rub or stick out at all. Its close but they don't.. Now it just needs the !4x4 mod. but my bigs and littles won't fit then! decisions decisions
