the tire size is fine and wont scrub... the wheels look awesome..

but screw all of yall about anything being bigger than 18's being too big for a muscle car.. the 19's would of looked incredible on yoru car.. and ihave heard tons of you all post about how great some of the camaros look with the 19" and 20" iforged or hre wheels.. so dont start to back out on that now.. just depends on the car...

Run 275/35-18 tires, they are the same overall diameter as stock so you don't have a messed up speedometer reading.

I want to but the ones I have on order are only $135 each lol.. they're $161 each in a 275/35/18. I actually have it corrected for 245/45/17s and 275/40/18s which are currently on my car using the hypertech.. I'd rather do 275/35/18s but there's enough of a difference in cost for any tire that size I probably won't.. here's the tread pattern on the HTRZ IIs I like it

I was going to suggest these, they are what I have on the back of my car. i got they from the same place, good deal for me since these Toyos are about $500 Canadian up here each. But they are still a decent amount more than the ones you're getting. The ones you got will look cool though, especially on those rims.

I can say I for one haven't said they look great. 18's push the limits of nice to me.

Good deal $157 for a Kumho Ecsta 712 Supra was the cheapest I could find a 275/35/18 in at the time I looked.. just as long as these don't rub on the front I'm good lol. I do think nice 19" wheels look good on Camaros with ground effects and Trans Ams.. 20s are a little big but 18-19" looks good.. on Camaros without ground effects 17-18" is better IMO

i do so agree.. ground effects and ride heighet make a huge difference in how the bigger sizes look.. and i would never personally go to twenties... but thats simply because you cant tuck them all the way on ari ride without some major modification.. and thats hopefully in my cars future
