The wheels i want to buy are made buy a company that dont have them spacificaly for Camaros. So, wat is the widest 17" wheel i can fit on the front of my camaro with a 1" drop? And what back spacing whill i need? I dont want the wheel sticking out farther than the edge of the car or the little flare.
Also, whats the widest 18" wheel i can fit on the back and with what backspacing?
Oh yeah, and all that without rubbing too bad.
The back is dropped an inch too.

How did you lower the car? By cutting the springs or buying lowering springs?

I have 17 x 9 10-spoke '00 SS wheels on mine, lowered 1.5 inches all the way 'round (with lowering springs) with no problem.

I used 5.5" backspacing on the rear of my car. The front was 5.1" becuase I got the Baer Track system up front and it widened my front by 0.4" per side.
The 17 x 9s I used had 7" backspace, so I had to buy 1" adapters for the front and 1.5" adapters for the back.

Worked out well.
