Default 17x11s all the way around

was thinking ill put 315s on them all but due to the short stock in sumis ill run 275s on hte front and 315s in the back for now. figure i can rotate my tires with 315 on all four in the future.

thoughts?

yeah its possible.. looks kind of silly imo because I like the look of skinnier fronts and wider rears but the Auto X and RR guys love it. you will need a spacer in the front to run them though.

Here is an old link I had saved of a guy that ran them on the front.

you will need a spacer in front, and probably longer studs. they wont fit at all without a spacer. youll also have to take in consideration what kind of backspacing you have.

The Trans Am has wider fenders front and rear, so they can run less offset and still tuck the tire under the fender. 36mm ZR1 wheels can be mounted on all four corners without any spacers at all (they stick out too far for the Camaros). 50mm wheels would require some spacers up front, and clearancing out back.

And that guy with the Camaro on those pics can still be found on frrax.com, along with numerous other F-body owners that have mounted 17x11s on all four corners, and a couple that have gone even wider. His screen name is Eugenio_SS.

If your going to do it with TT II's, you can do a custom build, you can have them made in the offset you need and the cost isn't too much more.
