Fitting 285/40/18's with lowering springs?

[Y2K_CAMARO]

Like the tittle says, I'm running 285/40/18's on the back of my 2000 Camaro. Will everything still fit nice and safe if I get some strano lowering springs and some koni shocks? I just dont want to lower my car and be f***ed because the tires dont fit because it already looks like a tight squeeze

Anyone?

It all depends on you wheel offset, what is it?

an adjustable panhard rod to center everything would help also.

They're Z06 rims. Not sure on the offset, they were on the car when I bought them. Here's a pic if that helps with the 275/35's on. But I do plan on getting new rims, probably 16's or 17's. What size offset would I need?

To be honest, I'm not even sure what that is. I'll have to look it up and see, lol

I'm running 295/35/18s at the back and I'm lowered w/ DMS springs. No rubbing.

shouldnt be a problem,I have zo-6 rims with 295's and Im lowered,no rubbing at all. Of course it does ultimately depend on your offset!!

When you lower the car the rear end is going to want to sit further to one side then the other, an adjustable panhard rod allows you to move the wheels left to right to give you the best fitment in the wheel wells.
This is the one I have although there are plenty of other brands. However I would recommend to only get the polyurethane bushings as the rod end ones are chattery little bastards

Also when you lower the car the rear axle get pushed towards the rear.

Sweet, thanks everyone. I dont think I'll have a problem. I'll have to get that adjustable panhard rod just to be safe

Don't mind that it has rod ends but get the style I showed you in the first link not this style, the way this fit on the passenger side I couldn't tighten down the nut.

Thanks to the both of you. I'll keep both of those in mind when the time comes to lower my ride
