Default Am i going to have issues with 315's on my tt2's?

I have a 99 firebird, bumpstops removed, i am getting my torue thrust 2's soon and i have the 315 in the rear, i was looking to do the heater hose mod, where the hose gets wrapped over the top coil on the spring, am i going to have any problems running that large of a tire? Will i need a panhard bar? any help would be appreciaed, i didnt purchase these yet and would like to know your guy advise before i do. Thank You Ricky

no problem at all because of the offset of the wheel. when u get into the 50+ offset in the rear, thats when u start rubbing

46mm i believe. i think the 50mm is strictly the zr1 wheels. i had the tt2s with 315s and didnt need spacers or have to bang in the inner wheel well. u will be fine. the lower the offset, the more the wheel will stick out, and the tt2 sticks out a lil further than the zr1s so it sits perfectly flush with the fenders. its a great look from the rear

Had 315/35ZR17 BFG KD's on the rear of mine with TTII's and Eibach Sportlines and they didn't hit at all!

You should not have any problems at all with either the TT2's or the TTM's.

I had a little bit of rubbing on mine, but it was really only enough to polish up the metal a bit, and it didnt damage the rim or tire at all.
