You are likely going to need 1.25" spacers...I just put a 19x11 CCW with 315/30/19 on my car that came off of a 05 z06....with Z06 offsets, and I needed a 3/8"spacer and a BFH to get them to just squeeze by. It'll be tight. Get the 1.25"adapter spacer, too be safe...it'll be a wide stance! A company on Ebay sells some quality billet aluminum spacers for around $70.

There is a member here with a white trans am that has 18x12 rear zo6's with 345/30-18 drag radials.....he is not mini tubbed. he has the offset lca's from madman, and BFH and some minor trimming.....and he is on Intrax lowering springs. I wish I could remember his name on here

Hey that looks sick man! Also there was a guy that had IForged Aeros 18x11 with 335s on the rear of his SS that he sold. They tucked in perfectly too. His screen name was H8 BN SLO. And I think he did it without mini tubbing as well. It looked bad ***. I'm planning on doing that as well with Fikse Profil 13s in 18x10 & 18x11 with 285s/335s as long as I can get the right offset to have them fit without mini tubbing or modifying the rear end.
