wide tires?

Has anyone figured out how to put some WIDE tires and wheels on the new Camaro yet and keep the independent suspension? Does it look like you could cut the fender wells out a bit? Im asking becouse I do not have one yet to look at

I think 315 is about as wide as you can go without having to make some changes if I remember correctly.

I'm sure you can find better shots of 315's but here is my rears. And I do believe 315 is as wide as you can go without doing some modifications. 345's are what the vette guys run
