You have to grind the fin's down on the back of the calipers and also on the back of the body, I also grinned the lettering off as well.

I was thinking I would be the only camaro with factory ground effects and a drag setup!
They are a 28x10.5 ET drag and I did not trim the ground effects the tire did it after a couple of passes at the track!

heres a pic of mine. not the best pic but you get the idea. I currently roll on billet specialties street lites 15x3.5 in the front and 15x10 in the rear with mt et street drag radials sized 275/60 15. This pic was taken from this past year at the LSX shootout when i was still running the 26inch tall mt et streets.
