Default put some meats on the maro

got some new kicks for the camaro since the stockers were just not cutting it, i didnt slurge to much just got these for a lil b day present to myself they are american racing torque thrusts 17 's with some very nice goodyear gsd3's , they are 17x9 up front with 275 and out back are 17x11 with 315's , some big ol MEATS. now after the wheels i know it will be getting lowered a bit. but dropping these cars is far more expensive than our trucks to do it right.

here are the stock 275 vs the 315



and on the car itself

no trimiing at all they fit fine, but if i whip it sideways i rub a bit on the inner side. but im ordering some new lca's and some other parts to keep the rear end from moving , if not ill be doing the bfh mod( big F**king hammer ) mod . im also looking at a cheaTR cam , since i have to keep this thing smog legal and reliable. if i could get a 4XX rwhp 11 second car to drive daily ill b ehappy as ****.

and right now as is i still spin these thing through most of first and a bit into 2nd, being i have 4.10 gears , so when i break the rear i may go with 3.73's.
