Default Will these tires fit in my car?

I am going to get some 315/35/17 and 275/40/17's installed on my new wheels, I can't have them mounted on the car since, I need to do some BFH mod and i can't do it without the tires mounted. So the question is, can you fit 4 of these tires with wheels inside a camaro? I know the rims fit just fine, but has anyone actually put the wheels with tires mounted inside?

I know it is a stupid question, but I dont have another car to take them in.

no they wont..not all four...you may can do some serious massaging with one in the rear, one in the driver seat and two in the rear but with thos sizes...it will be tough

Not trying to hijack but Kaane let me know how much BFH it took to get those 315s on the back I am going with a similar setup, just with 255s up front... I haven't gotten my tires yet though and wheels are due in today! Any input would be great...

I installed them today, very little BFH was needed, they didnt rub, but were very close. I did some BFH anyway just to make sure.

Also they all did fit in the car without using the front seat.

What kinda tires did ya go with? I am hoping to get my tires in next week... Got my wheels today and now it's time to buy tires. Oh, and what model camaro you got? I have a 98 Z so I figure they SHOULD fit without much BFH... I also have some SFCs coming in and a nice Yank SS3600 comin... So now I need some good'ol traction... hahhahaha

Haha, you fit all 4 in the rear to take home with you? I always had to use the front seat for my 18s (275s and 295s). 1 in the compartment, 1 in each back seat and 1 in the passenger seat. Kinda funny, was a total challenge to get them in. I guess 17s make the difference?
