What size tires are on the stock Camaro SS?
Camaro SS stock tires are typically 245/40R20 in the front and 275/35R20 in the rear on most modern 20-inch wheels; older generations used 245/45R20 front and 275/40R20 rear. Tire sizes can vary by year, trim, and option packages, so always verify your exact vehicle’s specs.
Tire sizes by generation
The Camaro SS has undergone a few tire-size changes across its generations. Here are the typical factory sizes you’ll encounter on a stock, non-special-edition Camaro SS with 20-inch wheels.
- Gen 5 (2010–2015): Front 245/45R20, Rear 275/40R20
- Gen 6 (2016–2024): Front 245/40R20, Rear 275/35R20
In short, the older fifth-generation cars used slightly taller front and rear tires, while the sixth-generation models shifted to a lower-profile setup on the same 20-inch wheels. Always check the door jamb placard or the owner's manual for the exact specification on your VIN.
Notes on variations and verification
Some Camaro SS configurations, such as special editions or optional packages, can alter the wheel/tire setup. If you’re replacing tires or evaluating performance potential, confirm the exact sizes listed on your vehicle’s tire information placard or in the build sheet to ensure accuracy.
Why accurate sizing matters
Using the correct stock size is important for handling balance, traction, speedometer accuracy, and warranty considerations. When replacing tires, starting with the OEM sizes helps preserve the intended performance characteristics of the Camaro SS.
Summary
For most modern Camaro SS models, the stock tire size is 245/40R20 front and 275/35R20 rear on 20-inch wheels, while fifth-generation cars commonly used 245/45R20 front and 275/40R20 rear. Always verify the exact sizes for your year and package using the door placard or owner's manual. This ensures optimal performance and fitment for your specific vehicle.
