Anyone here on the forum running the the toyo r888 285/35/20 front 315/30/20 rear on a lowered 1.25" lowered Camaro? If so did you have any issues as far as rubbing issues or when you hit the gas the outer part of the tire wouldn't hit the outer edge of the fend as they are a little more aggressive tire then some other 315's out there? Any info or help would be appreciated thanks.

Ive ran them before and my buddies run them and I F@cking love them.

Their amazing tires super sticky, but with something good a few small things

1. Not that great in rain and or when its cold ( remember to allow them to warm up)
2. They have a whine noise to them and some people may be annoyed ( it doesnt bug me)
3. They dont last super long ( btu then again i ok with that as well)

Are you no factory wheels or aftermarket wheels, this is imporant to know, however the car has space and I normally slap a 315/35/20 so This will fit fine I havent had any issues with rubbing on any of my clients ride.

But if you tell me the wheels I can help you out further.

There the factory reproduction zl1 replicas. I don't rememeber what offset is but I do believe it's whatever the most common one is

this is my current tire setup. they dont rub with my forgestars. i agree that they dont last long and they are very noisy, but they handle power well and they grip in corners like no other street tire in my opinion. I am also 1.25" lower.

Ya I use them as demo wheels when I design wheels for the AM scene, they def are worth it.

Just finally getting ready to pull the trigger on this. I see that they don't do a 275 for my front the 285 will be ok though?

These are great tires for handling and stopping in the dry as well. Great Tires.
