    Default wheel bearings

    Are the G8 wheel bearings the same as the 2010+ Camaros? Or at least interchangeable?

    Both front and rear bearings on the G8 are different from the Camaro

    That is what I needed to know. I was hoping the 1le/ZL1 heavy duty bearing would be an upgrade for our cars. Guess not.

    how different are they? IE measurement and bolt pattern don't fit - or different part numbers due to vendor change?

    Front bearings are bolt in.
    Rears are press in.

    Camaro bearings are the same way.

    PPV and SS rear bearings are the same as the G8.
    The front SS bearings are different from the G8 and older PPV, I think because of the move to an aluminum knuckle. It is still different from the Camaro unit.
