Will these tires fit?

Does anyone know if 295/30/19's or 315/25/19's will fit on the rear of a 98 Camaro?

Kinda depends on the wheel you're mounting these tires on.
295/30-19 with a 19x10 wheel (25.97" height) or 315/25-19 on a 19x11 wheel (25.20" height) I believe would fit with the possible need for hammering in the inner wheel well and rolling the fenders.
The 295 would have a better chance of fitting better for obvious reasons, and I think it would look a little better considering it's extra height. Either one is going to have very little sidewall.

I ran 19's on all four corners, and ran 275/30/19's on all four corners. So I can tell you from experience that the fronts will fit just fine. I would think you'd be okay with the 295's in the rear as well. Might need to roll the fenders, but maybe not.

provided you have a 11" with proper offset, the 315s will fit.
I have it in 17s... it'll basically be the same, except you have more your wheel is bigger and less sidewall... but overall, the whole wheel/tire combo will bw the same sizes... so you should not have many issues.
