Im running 315 bf drag radials on my camaro......i rolled my fenders and pounded my wheels wells just to make sure, and its a little piece of mind knowing your not going to shred your own tires.

On stock height with sumitomos you should have no problem. But if you are lowered or if you have some passengers then you will have some rubbing. The pounding is really not hard to do at all, theres a vid on you tube that was recently posted on how to do it lol.

stock suspension with nitto 315 drag radials on TT2s with no rubbing issues at all. Stock ride height, stock panard bar. I did not have to do the BFH mod or grind on my bump stops.
