Maximum Tire size for rear of '02 Z28

**mystictealZ28** · 09-26-2008, 02:06 PM

I have an '02 Z28 with the stock P245/50R16's all the way around. They are mounted on the OE 16 by 8 Rims. I wanted to purchase a set of Cooper 295/50R16's for the back of my car. The suggested rim size is 8"-10" so I think I'm ok there the O.D. is 27.69 and the tread width is 10". I was wondering if I could fit them on the rear of my Camaro without doing any modifications or if they will rub. Any help would be appreciated.
