Hi guys... Good to see you're liking the R954; think these are a perfect fit for the aggressive personality of the 5Th Gen Camaro. Want to take a moment to clarify some fitment concerns.

NO spacer required for fronts

NO spacer required for Camaro V6...

FOR SS MODELS
The rears come in two fitment specs:
20x10 + 25mm offset and 20x10 +45mm offset.

The 20x10 +25mm NO spacer required
The 20x10 +25mm will push 3/4" more towards the fender than the 20x10 +45mm; this 3/4" outward push also provides plenty of space for the SS Brembo calipers to clear perfectly. This application is perfect for those running stock size tires 275/40-20, 245/45-20 and up to sizes 285/40-20, 255/45-20. However, if you want to run a 295, 305 or 315 tire, the +25mm offset will place the tire passed the fender.

The 20x10 +45mm 5mm spacer required
The 20x10 +45 will sit deeper within the fender, and this allows us to run 295, 305 or 315 tires that sit nicely within the fender. But we must also keep in mind that the deep concave action, created by the drop in the center of the wheel-- combined with the +45mm offset, makes the wheel spokes land on the over-sized Brembo calipers. To remove this interference, we run a 5mm spacer, which is less than 1/4" thick; a 5mm spacer is really insignificant, for the wheel still catches the hub perfectly, and we send Extended Thread [ET] lugs that reach in the holes of the wheels; we end up covering more thread area of the stud with ET lugs than with regular lugs-- even with the 5 mm spacer.

Hope this helps... Any question, please feel free to contact me.

Thanks for your support.
