Another will it fit? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Looking at the reproduction ZL1 wheels 20x10 +35 for all 4. I'm lowered with the Pfadt 1.25 springs. I'm a little lower due to the extra weight of the convertible. I would like to run 295x35, since I think the 285x35 is just to low at this point. Am I dreaming of the 295 fitting and need to stick with the 275x40?
I checked a bunch of threads, but did not see this combo.

Thanks in advance

Ride height shouldn't be an issue. There shouldn't be much difference between a 295 and a 285 of the same series. The 275 will likely be about the same, maybe slightly larger.

For example:

285/35 : 27.9"
295/35 : 28.1"

That's .1" difference in ride height.

The issue, if any, would be rubbing (on the fronts) with a 295 (with that wheel offset).

The fitment isnt a issue but the 295 is too much

275/40/20 is perfect.
