I can imagine you having clearance problems .. when me and my bro were trying to get 275s on the back of his lt1 it took quite a bit of influence from a hammer.

Yeah oddly enough there wasn't even room for 275s until we got out the hammer and the wheels/tires came straight off of a 02 corvette. I always kind of assumed that the wheel wells from say a 97 to 98 z28 would be very similar, I guess not though.

Even 275s went on my fox with no clearance problems at all.
