Yeah, that's what I hear. I have about the narrowest 315 out there lol

It's actually a lot more noticeable in person.

Getting kicked in the dick is how I roll

And yeah, she loves her car. A few years ago when we first started dating, my Camaro was in the middle of a high stall converter install at my parents house so I drove my dads NBM WS6 for the time being. I went to her house in it (at the time she did not have a car, nor did she want one) but when she saw his, she had to have one. This red WS6 ended up being only the second car she's ever owned and she can't possibly go back to anything "normal" She likes driving the Tahoe too, but her TA is by far her favorite thing ever.

Thats an awesome comparison pic! I've been curious as to what the 315's would look like on an f-body. Thanks for posting this!

I should throw em on her car too for comparisons sake. I think 275s look smaller on a TA than a Camaro because of how much wider the bottom rear is on the TA.

Thanks for the comparison pics. Makes me want to save up for some chrome 11" ZR1s now. Ah the list gets longer.

You are lucky to have a wife that is in to american sports cars. A lot of girls claim they like cars... if they are BMW's, Benz's, or exotics.

Nice rides, did you have to do any modifications to fit those 315's?

Not really, but they were rubbing slightly in some cases. I guess over big speedbumps or something.

So I took the bump stops off and ground the actual metal down. I re-installed the bumpstops and then took a sledgehammer to the rest of the metal. I did this AFTER re-installation of the bumpstops to assure they could be put back on and make sure not to mis align the mounting holes. I then painted the inner wheel well flat black to assure no bare metal is left on the car (to prevent potential rust) and wheels went back on with no rubbing.

Frickin took longer to explain than to actually do all the work.
