Curious what is looks like, and what all you had to do to make it fit. Not sure if I want to go with the 335 or 315's.

here they are on my cobra, to get them on my camaro was BFH mod and i has spacers and the tires stuck out of the fender about 1/4 to 1/2 inch but it didnt look bad at all






And Trust what was the offset on them rims that you had in the back, were they custom made for the TA or were they from the C5 offset and they fit on?

I'd go with 335s on your F-body.

I have 315s on my Cobra. For sure going with 335s next time.

335's are kind of a pain to fit on an Fbody, sometimes. I've got 335/30/18's on mine, and I had to BFH, roll the fenders, and run a 5/16" spacer to get mine to fit. And it's still pretty tight in a few spots. It actually wasn't that hard on my old Camaro though, for some reason. I just had to do a little BFH'ing and that was it. No spacer or fender rolling. So, it's hit or miss on how easy they'll fit. And it was the same exact rims and tires on both cars.

why are the tires going the wrong way? EDIT: in the last picture they are going the wrong way... was it cause the IRS was eating up the insides of the tires? see that a lot with IRS'

335 would be trouble I would think, My 315s are cutting it close on my zr1's.

Weird, I have 15x10s with 325 Radials on my Camaro. All I had to do to make them fit was tap around a bit with the BFH. No spacers or anything. But when we went to put them on my buddies Trans Am, man it took us like a hour per side to get them on. We had to pound like hell, take an angle grinder to the bump stop area, and still had to use a tiny spacer.

Yep. I find it odd how everyone says Trans Am have bigger fender wells, so it's easier to fit a bigger tire. Yet, it took way more mods to fit the same rims and tires onto the T/A, than the Camaro.
