      18' and 20" wheels on a 2nd Gen Camaro

      Hi guys, could you please help me with the following question?
      I recall there used to be a great wheel fitment chart under this section, but what I found is very basic.
      I'm writing from Argentina, where information is scarce.
      I have a 1970 Camaro I want to fit the following wheels without having to modify the suspension, and would like to know if it's possible:
      FRONTS: American Racing VN510s 18x8 with a 4.5" backspace
      REARS: American Racing VN510s 20x10 with a 5.74" backspace
      Any feedback is highly appreciated.

      2” stagger is too much imho. 18/19 will look better.

      I have the same setup you are looking at for my 66 GTO. Have not driven on them yet as I'm still building it, but have them bolted up and they fit great on that car.

      GTO es a larger chassis than an F-body, don't want to take the risk since I'm not in the States. Any info?

      Firebirds have bigger wheel wells than a Camaro but an 18x8 with 4.5"bs front and and 18x10 with 5.5" bs rear fit on 2nd Gen Firebirds without issue.

      You'll be limited to a 275 or 285 rear tire on a Camaro... Firebirds can handle a 295 out back. A 245/275 will clear with no problem... you may be able to squeeze a 255/285 but I'm not sure.

      I agree that a 2” stagger is too much! An 18/18 or 18/19 will look better. My vote is for the 18x8 & 18x10 with 245/275 tires if you want no fitment or rubbing issues on a stock suspension.
