Spacers and longer ARP wheel studs was all it took for me. 5/16" spacer used up front. Probably could have gotten away with 1/4".
17x11 50mm offset. The spacers are needed to clear the spindle nubbin.
But like the other folks said, it's not a great setup for street use. I only used them for autocrossing...

Driving in the rain with 315's in the front is gonna be a bitch. It's gonna pull your *** all over the place. 315's in the front is for road racing only man....stick with 275's on 9.5's for the front.

Hey calm down guys I didnt say I was going to this. Just wondering what it takes to get it done. Just more knowledge for me to use in the future. Plus I am thinking that if I really wanted to autocross I will just wait till the new Camaro comes out with the IRS. And this call will go drag only 
that is my real plan thanks for the info guys helpful as always.

Im planning on purchasing another set of 17x11 but for auto x purposes only. My 275's up front pull once in a while, I cant imagine what the 315's up front would do.
If you are auto xing, do it.
