Why does it come with 20" wheels? to daily drive 🤣 get real dude… and I wans’t the one that brought my personal car into this… I was simply talking about the subject at hand… i think its been you folks that feel like dragging my cars into the conversation will help validate your internet arguing points. I AutoX regularly with a HIGHLY BUILT 996 GT2. I hang with him, though I admit he gets me most of the time. But it’s a race-only car, gutted to the extent the rules allow, no compromise alignment etc. I can take getting beaten by a trailered race car when I drive to/from. ![http://www.wwracing.net/photos/AlamedaPT3_09/25.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/5/7/57fc696cd9a3822ddde335116db82000a8e1a89c.jpeg) He (literally) has more into modifying and developing that car than I paid for mine. :shrug: And who the hell can’t daily drive on 20"s? I DD’ed my Lexus on 19"s for a long, long time. And my sidewalls were shorter than those on the new Camaro (the overall tire height on the Camaro is pretty huge). I really don’t understand your argument here. > [@R!cers automotive items you hated the most](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/r-cers-automotive-items-you-hated-the-most/40245/111): > > i know they are my opinion… which is why i’m surprised that so many dudes are salty about it. if, as TJ stated, the car’s intent was for a daily driver, does it really need brakes that don’t allow 18" wheels??? …no… it’s a sports car, which is why it comes with big brakes and huge wheels… which is why I feel that, for what it was produced for, it’s underpowered. Some people DO care about performance in their DD. When you have 426HP (which I guess is now underpowered!!! :hahano: ) in a ~3800lbs car what is wrong with putting some big brakes on it? I can’t believe you’re going to say it’s not a viable DD because it has big brakes and 20"s. I daily drove my '99 Z/28 for most of the 5.5 years I owned it and the last 2 or 3 years I had Porsche 996 TT front brakes on it… I guess that meant it wasn’t really a DD. -TJ --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/we-got-our-first-camaro-ss-in/202635)._
