I never underestimate people's stupidity.

This thread turned out well, but I admit, I was worried I was going to see someone turning their F-body into a Conestoga Wagon.

I would to, you'd never be found.

as for the 345 series tires, you would need to mini tub it. as said above, with your first option all that would need to be done most likely is grind the calipers a little bit.
