Have ?'s about clearance and spacers? I have a SS Camaro and love the stance but would like to widen the back end just a little. I seen a few pics of spacers on already wide tires and wheels and it looks just sick!!! I have chrome 17x9.5 ten spoke c6's with the 275/40/17 MT ET's for my daily setup. I also have a rear set of chrome ZR1's 17x11.5 with 315's NIttos for track days and cruise nights.
I would like to do some spacers and have done some searching but all I can come up with is 7.75"??? I seen a few pics of this setting and it's exactly what I am looking for.
I wanted to make sure that there wouldnt be any clearance issues. I have a Hotchins drop on the car so it sets pretty low...but I do have the fenders slightly rolled so I have never had any issues before....What do you guys think? Also would love some pics of your camaros with spacers from the back. Include wheel size, width, spacer size, and tires. Thanks guys...need all the help I can get on this one.

Talked to CCM on the phone....they said that to get a 7.75" backspaceing...most cases use a 1/2 inch spacer. That is a great start but I just want to make sure there will not be any clearance problems! Tearing my tires up ect...Il get a pic of what the radials look like rite now...
