I have about a one finger gap of clearance from the top of the tire to the top fender when the front is over a 2.5" ramp on one side. I also didn't find any rubbing on the front tire from my last event, which was very bumpy and full of elevation changes.

Sure, see below for pics of the front to see how far they stick out. I am running -3.8° of camber up front with Vorshlag Camber Plates.

Nice! That much camber really tucks them in.

There's a local running 18x12 et43 on his '17 SS non-1LE, uses a big spacer up front and runs 335 square rivals or equivalent slicks. 3.2 deg camber up front I believe.

They poke a bit but don't hit the fenders.

There's a guy in TN that put overfenders on the front fender of his 2.0T 1LE to run 335s square. I'm not sure about the specs of the wheels or camber though. Just saw a couple of pictures.

Looks good!

I'm still a little unsure about placing the right side of the car, even after 2 yrs, lol... I do wish the car had just a 1" or so lower beltline!

I'm jealous of your Chicago site, that looks awesome.

This is our usual, awkwardly tight local lot. The speedo still briefly flashed 74mph though, due to that LT4 torquey goodness.

I've come away feeling better about runs, but it was still enough for 1st in CAM. This group has a fair amount of national tour drivers and karts and Hoosier cars, so it was only good for 13th of 95 overall.

The CAMC Field for Sunday. Lol... There's one more Camaro in X/CAMC and one in F.

Unfortunately it's looking like a low of 42, high of 63 and an 80% chance of rain. CAMC runs 1st, so it'll be 50 if I'm lucky and I have SC3s. The car is a handful and the tires never warm up, but it'll be interesting to see if the new GMPP AutoX eLSD programming changes things. This may be a good test! Can't wait to get my 315/30/18s, not gonna place well without them. Lots of dedicated, trailered cars and good drivers.

That's a real big CAM-C class. That 02 Mustang should be in CAM-T, but whatever.



Don't think I've ever been a part of an event that CAM ran first heat. Mostly because the noise and cold tires I would think.
