Post 17x11 ZR 1 rim offset questions

+36 mm or +50 mm? Which offset would give a more agressive look on a 315 in the rear? The larger the offset the wider the look? Or is it the other way around . My car is pretty much stock so I wouldnt need stronger studs correct? Would I need spacers?. Thanks - TP

For a Camaro you need the 50mm offset. The 36's are for Firebirds that have the more flared fenders. They'd stick out and hit the fenders if you put them on a Camaro.

50 mm is the only "recommended" offset for the Camaro.

And yes the smaller the offset the further the wheel moves outwards.
