triple-black- 2000 CamaroSS convertible
you know 335s fit in the front no problem... the rear requires lots of work for 335s
here are some pix of 335s on all corners.

you can rotate wheels this way, if you do the same in the front, and handling will be improved even more.Eugenio_SS
almost stock triple-black 2000 SS convertible with 17x11s on all 4 w/ 315s at the track or on the street with 18x10.5s on all 4 w/ 315s: (1), (2)

They are indeed ZR1's nice observation. It cost about $ 800.00, the place apparently is out of business now. I just got these done about a 2 1/2 months ago and I called to widen the fronts and the # is no good, I even tried googling them to no avail. If they changed names I don't know but now there are several companies I saw that do it now. After they widen them then they have to be repainted/chromed! That's an extra $ 200.00 but I painted them myself.

Looks tits from the rear.
Not a fan of how they stick out from the body otherwise though.

I agree totally about sticking out wheels but these are tastefully sticking out 1" past the wheelwell and when I go 9" I'll have it cut so I can tuck that extra inch inwards and it'll be just the way I'd envisioned. Ever see a Lamborghini from the rear? That's the look I'm going for. An early Viper also wore this size wheel and looks killer from behind. Come on , it's the largest F'n tire they make width wise , that's why Lamborghini, Ferrari, Porsche on the Gemballa edition and other exotics chose this wheel width and tire combo. In a street tire only Michelin makes a 335/35/17!! You can get drag radials Kumhos, Mickey but not a tru water handling, turn tearing street tire.
Thanks all for the compliments and opinions.

actually... 335s have been done before by several ppl... you're not the 1st one.
sorry to burst the bubble.
as for 335s looking funny in the front, I don't agree.. I find the rears sticking out like yours not as good as this one, with 335s on all 4 corners:
I think they tuck in pretty good for the size... and no rubbing in the front, for those who ask.Last edited by Eugenio_SS; 07-16-2008 at 08:14 PM.

btw, how big an adapter/spacer did you put in the rear ? after widening the 17x11 afs wheels.
I think they would tuck in better if they were mounted on 17x12 instead of 17x13.

Hey Bud, no bubble burstin here. I NEVER once said I was the first with 335's. I may be the first with 17x13's on a T/A though. If you know of any let me know. Obviously the offsets of our wheels differ. I have no spacer on the rears, I have recessed the spring (pouch) in the inner wheelwell for space as well as BFH all round the inner.
