Will a 295-35-18 fit on a 2000 SS?

**2000SLP** · 08-10-2009, 03:01 PM

I bought some C5 Z06 wheels. I put some 275-40-18 on it for temporary use. Those tires are fine, they dont rub. I just got some 295-35-18 and i am going to get them mounted this week. Are they going to rub? Has anyone ever done this? Thanks

Thats what I run in the rear.

AWESOME!!!!! Thanks this makes me very happy. I will be putting up some new pics hopefully soon. I got the new wheels, and i took the front and side ground effects off.

Should fit.
May need a little fender rolling or hammering in the wheel well...but not likely.

You can go up to 315 with some hammering and grinding-some people are bold enough to put on 335's-more work included.

Not really, EugenioSS on here runs 315 on all 4 corners on his Camaro. Running 295s is cake. I really made didn't have to do any mods to fit 295s.

yeah...the difference between 275 and 295 is just under an inch, like 7/8 inch wider, and with it being a 35 series, instead of a 40, itll probably be about the same sidewall height...its actually a little short, your current sidewall is 110 mm, your new ones are 104mm.....so yeah, 20mm wider, 6mm shorter than your current tires

Although these tires will work out just fine, a better fit would be 295/30/18. Just an FYI.
