S60 with hose mod mod .... cut off the bump stops completely and bfh mod until I could fit a full finger completely between the inner tire and inner well.
It is posted that you have to fit these on with the suspension loaded to clear the bump stops (bump stops sit inside wheel). It just didn't appear too safe to me. Since I have a Spohn drag bar and no room to place jack stands under the rear, I wanted to be able to remove the wheels with the car jacked by my sfc's. It is easier to switch to a drag wheel/slick setup. I will also be running 28" tall slicks so I will be rolling the fenders later.

For me, I am only concerned with straight line performance so I cannot say about cornering. Someone else should chime in here. I am setting up my SS strictly for drag racing. Honestly, for the street, I went with this setup for looks and budget on the street. Track performance will be handled by Race Stars with slicks and skinnies.

Will 315's fit without rubbing? i have zr1's with 315, if its lowered THEY WILL RUB AND TEAR INTO THE TIRE, u might have to do the bumpstop mod,
but if its stock height, they ride great. If you carrying 3 passengers, they might rub when u hit a bump going 65 lol

CHROME zr1's weight about 20 lbs, I personally think non-chrome zr'1 look sickkkk, but thats jus my opinion
