Fatty Rear wheels?

Just curious if the Camaro will have a fatty rear wheel package included?
I think it would look FRIGGIN SICK!

If they dont offer, I will definatley be putting them on myself.

going to be pretty limited on width size with the IRS. lets pray it comes with 10" inch wide tires, though it may only come with 8"

Dang. well i guess thats what mods are for :P although. i have no idea what the IRS is. besides the revenue service :P

I was hoping to have a 2 inch bigger diameter in the back wheels as well. the poster i have of the new camaro shows fatty real wheels and all these pics dont. so im dissapointed.

Independant Rear Suspension

I was hoping for 10" or 12" wide tires in the rear but not sure now if that will be a reality. If by mods you mean putting in a rear axel and tub job, because that would be saaweeet.

Or you could go for a wide-body kit, but then anyone with any taste will want to kill you.

I have 17x11s with 315/35ZR17 Goodyears on the back of my LS1 Trans Am, and I even get Corvette guys getting all wide-eyed when they see my car from the rear. Hopefully there's room to stuff some wide wheels and tires back there. I hope that if I can get some meat back there I don't have to use the BFH mod to keep them from rubbing like on my car.
