Default Can I Fit These Wheels & Tires?
If I were to lower my 01' camaro 1.2" with Strano Springs/Koni Shocks (http://www.stranoparts.com/partdetai...D=90&ModelID=7) and throw on 18x9.5 c5 zo6 replica wheels all around, +56mm offset, with 275/35/18 tires, would I need to do the BFH mod to fit these wheels & tires?

Please post, especially if you have the same setup!

P.S. I have a non adjustable Spohn panhard bar if that would do anything

Nothing needed to be done . . the offset, tire and wheel width is all within OEM Camaro SS wheels so you will be fine.

Even with a 1.2" drop?

A 1.2 inch drop really isn't that much, bro.

Running that wheel and tire combo and lower than that, no problems.
