Default 315 45 16 Mickeythompson With Bogart

So Im Planning On Running A Mickey Thompson Drag Radial 315 45 16 With A 16 In Bogart Would The Tire Hit My Panel? Would The Rim Clear The Calliper? What Do U Guys Think Or If The Rim Hits The Calliper Can I Shave Some Of The Calliper Down?

Rich will make them so they will fit. That is what I run and have zero problems other than being able to find the tire right now.

Hmm, not sure what the offset for the C6 is, but I bet it is very close or the same.

Are those 15/16 or 16/16 wheels? I do like the idea of one piece wheels over the two piece CCWs. What is the price tag for a set?

Now that I have looked a little closer, I believe you are right What does a set run? I guess I am being too lazy to look myself.
