325/50/15 mounting on a camaro
well they were not much help in the wheels and tire section so
i have done a search and on says they fit easy and one say no problems
SOOO what does it take to fit these on a camaro and will they even fit my car because it is lowered 1.5 inches ?
if not what is the biggest tire i can fit on it ?
this tire will be going on a 15x10 with 7.5 bs and my springs are suspension techniques from jegs if that matters

Not a 325 DR, but as big or a wee bit wider...

I can't get it any lower.

Search in the wheel and tire forum under my username, I have them and I'm lowered. You will have to hammer the wheel well, and maybe trim the back bumper (I did). I also run some very small spacers, like 1/4" I think. This is mainly for the brake caliper clearance, but w/o the spacer I am going to have to hammer more. You might need an adjustable p/h rod, I have one but didn't need it to clear them.

roll the fenderlips, hammer inner wheel well. Bumperstop isnt a problem IF you always place the jack under the rearaxel.

Im in the process of fitting these on with a 10" wide 7.5 backspacing. Your going to have to hammer the **** out of the inner fender I just made a tool in the shop to fit on my air hammer to make it a little easyer Ill post pics up once im not lazy and go fit them in.

On non-adjustable lcas, you have to cut or they touch. At least mine did.

the work shown in the picture was what it took to barely fit the 325's. I then went back and cut a lot more of the bump stop area out where out, following the red half circle.
The oval is where you need to hammer a LOT. I tried an air hammer, which did NOTHING. I used a normal hand hammer, then i brought out my big sledgehammer to finish it off.
I used metal snippers to cut the rear fender where it says "TRIM"
