275 tires in front and 315 in back?
I have a 91 camaro I just bought and will be doing the whole work up as in tubular k frame and a arms. But What would I have to do in order to fit 275 tires up front and at least 315's in the rear?

a 275 will fit up front, but not well with the coil-overs you mentioned in another post. 315 will fit the rear, you will have to hammer the front of the wheel well a bit for clearance and you may have to rework the bumpstop area as well. Plenty of people here run the 315's.

Thanks alot. Actually the more I read here i think i'm gonna run the BMR tubular K-member with manual rack, tubular a-arms and just run with the stock spring set up. That seems to be what most people recommend.

Yep...I'm running 275/17s on 9" wheels up front & they fit great. 285s on there, for now. I'm hoping to change that come new tire time.
