What brand tries are you running? any camber? g or Z s techs?

I think you'll fit but it'll be close.

Cars gonna handle like a piece of **** but yea it'll work. Roll the rear fenders.

Btw, running a 295 instead of a 305 will save you about $300 every set of tires.

I understand that. I got a good deal on them though and needed to pick up a quick set cause I got a flat and I had limited options since i was buying used. The rear specs of the wheels were weak anyways and I wanted to fill up the wheel well without running spacers.
