The only thing they share would be the bolt pattern. The main worry I can see would be the load ratings. Camaro wheels are not going to be able to handle the stress of a light truck. They would not have enough load capacity.

Light truck wheels are going to have a higher load rating than a car wheel. Due to the differences in load distribution on a truck (they are top heavy) and suspension, truck wheels have a higher load rating than a Camaro. The offset and back spacing will not be the same on many of these as well. I would stick with something designed for that type of vehicle.

If the wheels are not load rated for the truck you can expect the wheels to be more prone to damage from stress or impact. If they do not have the correct offsets for the truck's hub, you can expect premature wheel bearing wear. Most of the Camaro offsets are way off for what you would need on an S10.
