Default lowered with 335

Is it possible to lower my 98' LS1 Camaro with 335 wide pilot sports in the rear and 275 in the front? If so, how much...

that's what i want to do...and honestly it'd gonna have a nasty offset...and you possibly might have to shorten the axles...not 100% sure though...it's DEFINATELY gonna be a tight squeeze.

You can do it, Some one on this board has 335's tucked under his Camaro. You will need to use the BFH on the wheel wells.
