Yes it is with a rim guard as pictured above. The Super Sport is not available in a 305/35. With the 295 it will have slightly more gap than factory but it's barely noticeable.

How did I miss this thread.

Wow, it's hard to believe a 275 is wider than a 315 Invo.
And people have been thinking their 315 Invos are real wide.

Yeah, 295s.
And I saw pictures where the 305 P-Zeros were also wider than the 315 Invos.

Is this on the Synergy Green Camaro. I could of not read this post at any better of a time. I just asked for a quote using Michlen Pilot Super Sports. I was going to go for 20 X10 TSW Nurburg... Using 285/35 tires.
I dont have money to drop my car. Is it ok to go 35 on stock ride height. Also do you think 285 /35 on all four corners be ok?

Wow looking at Tire Rack for the 275/35Z R20 they are only 338 each tire... Man If I can go 275 35 on 10" rims and look good with out lowering it that would be my Tire....

Then found Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus 275/35Z R20 for 272 a tire... that would work also since its a daily driver.. Though not sure if they are as wide as the Super Sport big brother tire...

I think its time for a new post.

I run 285 Pilots on all four with TSW Nurbs 20x10. I can tell you they fit perfectly with XAs lowered 1in. The 35 sidewall seems to feel a little harder on bumps vs. the Pirellis. Check Discount Tire for pilot prices. I got mine cheaper even with sales tax than anywhere online.
