Default Question for the toyo tq guys

Hey guys, I'm going to be ordering 315/35/18 tq's for my c5 dd wheels and my question is: can I get those tires and wheels to work on the rear of my ws6 without rolling the fenders? I will bfh whatever I need to, I'll cut the bumpstops but I just don't want to have to roll my fenders. I've got stock ws6 wheels on now with 315/35/17 nitto 555r's. I know the tq's are gonna be wider but only by less than half an inch. If I can't squeeze them in there without rolling the fender, I may go with something else but I really don't want to. Let me know guys. Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

mine rub, I need my fenders rolled. hard cornering or with a rear passenger they rub. im gunna mess with my adjustable panhard bar, but pretty sure they already rub both sides. just more on the left. my 315 sumitomes didnt rub as bad as these. hopefully you arent putting these tires on the ws6 wheels, cause they're too big. Nittos are already pushing it, and theyre pretty narrow....

Good luck. I hope that's all you need to do. I really want these tires for the grip but also they'll do a good job filling up my wheel well and not look ridiculous.

They rub on the inside? Did you cut the bumpstops? Those 50mm wheels are recessed too much for a TA. Try a 10mm or 3/8" spacer. That'll probably fix it as the TA has larger wheel wells than a Camaro, but the 50mm offset is not great. 38-45 is more ideal.

Anyone else? I think I may just order them and see what I come up with once they're mounted.

My bumpstops are cut from 17x11 clearance. I think the fenders are my only issue. I still have been driving everyday.
