I just put those exact rims on my 2001 SS. They are VERY close to the bump stops in the back so i ground them down a little just to be safe. The fronts fit fine, they are very close to the spindle, but im 99% sure the rims dont move in relation to the spindle so its not a problem. Ive put about 50 miles on them so far with no problems whatsoever.

I don't like those wheels on a Formula. I think the HP Evo would be a better choice
