Thats the biggest tire you can fit on a 2000 to 2002 camaro. The tire will rub on the rear arms when you turn and clearance the inner fender.
Thats actually the size I have on my Z28

What rear do you have and do you have a side shot showing tire clearance arround the wheel well (fender and bumper clearance)? Also do you think a 10.5 would fit better? I need a taller tire too but do not want to hack or pound anything.

got 28"x11.5 / also used a 1/8 spacer. For the fender a 1.5 inch less will help, however I got it done in a place for $50 both sides and they did it with a piece of wood, took 30mins.

I meant a side shot. So you can see the gap between the tire in the fron and the back of the quarter.

That looks like a nice fit.
What rear end do you have? Did you adjust it to sit more center? I may need to find a local guy to let me put on a set of 28s to see how they fit.

What size do you recommend on a 15 x 10 rim in a 98 T/A? Are these tires better than the M/T?
