Thanks. 6D9 Mar 3rd, 08, 10:15 AM Yes...add some 275/40/17's and its a great fit. yellowrallys Mar 3rd, 08, 11:12 AM You might need to trim the outer lip too, depending on how low the car sits. jag4902 Mar 3rd, 08, 12:31 PM I have some 255/60/15 on it now- plenty of clearance. With 15 x 8 Rally Wheels. Thanks. musclecarjohn Mar 3rd, 08, 02:40 PM They'll fit like a glove and I'd be willing to bet w/275/40's you have ZERO clearance issues.:yes: I run that combo on both Camaro's w/285-40 rubber and no issues whatsoever but as we all know...these cars are all slightly different. 275/40's would be a very safe call indeed.My car is pretty low as you can see: http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p3/topfueljohn/DSC04914.jpg http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p3/topfueljohn/DSC04917.jpg http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p3/topfueljohn/DSC04919.jpg http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p3/topfueljohn/DSC04918.jpg jag4902 Mar 4th, 08, 09:25 AM Thanks guys. great answers. Yellow looks good on your car. MortenL Mar 4th, 08, 01:10 PM Hi could i with stock suspension mount a set of Coys in 18*8 in front and 18*9,5 rear without problems, and what about in the future will i be able to drop it 1,5-2" without problems? Thanx Morten Larsen Odense/Denmark P,s Buy the way, wery pretty 69 you have there looks cool in yellow and i love your headlights :-) hpcam Mar 4th, 08, 05:34 PM My same combo rubs on the passenger inner fender well. :( I am going to try spacing the wheel out about a 1/4", hopefully it will solve the problem.

There is a perfect example of why these "will this fit?" questions are answered with a disclaimer. Just because something fits on one car doesn't mean it will fit on another as well as just because it fits on one side doesn't mean it fits on the other side. musclecarjohn Mar 5th, 08, 11:29 AM There is a perfect example of why these "will this fit?" questions are answered with a disclaimer.
