I've run 17x11's on my firebird with 315's for 3 years and have had 0 issues. Get an adjustable panhard rod and you shouldn't have a problem with the correct offset rim.
Usually people have issues with the inner well before the outer-well, but iirc, camaro's have ever slightly narrower wheel wells than firebirds, but rolling the fenders should eliminate that issue.
