I'm about to order some new wheels within the next week or two and I'm wanting to get the 17x11 in the rear with 315's but i don't want to get them if they are going to rub. So my favor that i need is if someone in the Houston area has 17x11 with 315's in Houston area would be willing to let me test fit them on my car. Not to drive around or anything like that just want to see if the will rub or not.

I have a friend that has a camaro with the ZR1's 17x11 with 315's and his does not rub and he did not have to use the BFH either. He has moved 4 hours away so I can't try his.

If it matters I have a 02 camaro.

Thanks

Also if you have put 315's on your camaro without the BFH let me know.

What rims and tires are you ordering? What's the offset?

 

well if you in the katy area will let you try mine on

 

ZR1's from tomzwheels 17x9.5 56mm 17x11 50mm

I'm off hwy 6 and west little york, I have no problem with driving to Katy. What kind of wheels you have and offset?

 

I did a 17X11 36mm offset Grandsport and they didn't rub... Not positive about the 50mm though. 2002 Z28 as well

 

My Formula had 17x11 ZR1's with 50mm offset on it with no problems as long as I jacked up the rear by the pumpkin so it wouldn't hang.

 

Ok i checked there website again this is what it says.

Offset: 17x9.5 +38mm or 17x9.5 +56mm
Offset: 17x11 +50mm

For the front which one would be better?

 

I have TT2 17x11's and they did rub on the bump stops so I just got Madman to cut them off. No big deal.

 

Is your car lowered? My 315's went on fine when I wasn't lowered in the back. The only thing I had to do was roll the fender lips, to keep them from gouging the sidewalls. Once I lowered, I had to do the BFH and re-center the rearend with an adjustable panhard bar (which you should do anyway).

No. My car wasnt lowered and they only rubbed when the car was jacked up by the frame but it was such a pain the the butt I had the bump stops cut off.

 

My car is not lowered.

 

my cars lowered with the 17x11 50mm offset, rubbed the face of the tire on the fender slightly, and once i put the phr on it didnt rub at all
