thay are 16x8, in the mickey thompson book it says that the new drag radial size 295/50/r16 approved rim width is 8-10 inch. yea my speedo and gears are setup in the comp. for 275/55/16 being i have mh racemasters on there now.
I would think they would fit..I have a 28in tire 325/50/15 and its tight but A LOT bigger than the 295s. If anything youll have to do a little hammering to the wheel wells..
If they are 16x8 weld prostars the 295/50/16 will fit. youll need to do a lil hammering thats about it not too much. I ran BF Goodrichs radials TA on my stock 16x8 z28 wheels. I didnt know I was loosing alot of gear. I have 2.73 gears and when I mounted those on without me knowing till I found out later I had 2.34 gears lol but yea long story short, they will fit.

Brett Foote Inside the fenders... youll see. if you have them already mounted on the rim, mount both of them on and run it a bit, example around the block so that they can rub on something and then youll be able to see where to hammer it in.

Hey Man. I found a pic.
The baby blue would be the areas where you would have to BFH.
That was the only area I BFH on mine.
You can also try adding a 1/4 spacer for more clearance. =]
I had em, no proplem here.

The night I first mounted my 295s the ride home they were rubbing.
next morning took them off saw where it was rubbing, Hammered it in =]
mount them on, ride around the block like two times and start hammering.
