I have an 02 SS with a set of BMR lowering springs an Bilstein shocks on my car. I have a set of ZR-1 wheels (11.5") on the rear with 315 Street radials. I had to remove the stock snubbers in the rear and slightly beat 1 section of the inner fender well. Well worth it. It absolutely looks great.

My car has 325/50 15s and is lowered on dms springs with the isolators removed, I had to beat some parts of the inner wheel well and the lips are rolled but the isolators are still in place. It only rubs when I turn into my drive way other than that its fine.
