Howdy all,

I need your help/advice. I need to get some serious rubber on the back of my '11 SS, and would like to go with a 16" or 17" wheel/tire combo and run something like an MT ET Street tire with a true wrinkle-sidewall.

Question is - what does it take to get a 16" wheel on the rear? Will I need to swap out the rear brakes for a V6 setup? If that's the case, then is it possible to run a 17" rim with the stock SS rear Brembo's? If that will clear, what suspension mods are required? Will I need to replace the lower control arms - and if so - if any of you have done it - can you recommend what I should get?

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

BLESSINGS!
Sam
