I have 315's for the rear tires now will a 325 or 345 fit

[randommisfire]

does anyone know if ether one of these size tires fit in the rear of a 96 firebird formula. If minor mods need to be done that is fine I can do them. If you have pics pleas show them with your size thanks

[Wooshie]

Someone on here was supposed to post pictures months ago in their build thread and never did. I have never run bigger than a 315. I am assuming you are running on a stock rim?

[popo8]

yeah, that someone, bought 345's (SEXY ASS TIRES) but never updated pics.... but I believe his car was mini tubbed and possibly a narrowed rear....

[MeanGreen94Z]

you CAN tuck a 335 with the right BS but they are going to peek out of the fender a little

I am running the Torque Thrust 2 rim and it is 17X11 for the rear. Since I work in the tire industry this may not be as difficult as it may seem since the 315 has a section width of 12.6,, a 325 has a section width of 13.0 and a 345 is 13.6. A simple difference of only one single inch to figure out if I have the room for in a already tight wheel well. A friend of mine is running a 12 inch wide rim with a 315 tire and he had to make some room however the same tire fits on my 11 inch wide rim with no mods but oh yea its close

Id like to move up to 335 tires for my ZR1s

I can tell you that my Z06 wheels, sitting against 1/4" spacers are holding all they can with the 315s (at least without modification.....

[SexyTransAm]

my god thats alot of tire!!!

[Colossus]

My best friend ran 335's on 17x11 TT2's for a couple of years. Just a little fender massaging. Not that bad.

[1963SS]

What keeps the car from falling off that 90 degree lift in the center pic. That would be great for detailing the undercarriage.;)

[95sicknastyss]

i wanted to put a 325 wide tire on mine but as you can see in my sig, with the wrong backspacing im stuck with these 275's. i want to look like that red car. but with a mini-tub and the tires in the fender good.
