4th gen rear in a 3rd gen

Anyone have this setup on their firebird/camaro? I might do this and was curious if the rear wheels will stick out too far? If anyone has a pic of their car with a 4th gen rear axle and with the origional (3rd gen) wheels on it I would be interrested in seeing it.

Thanks

When I did mine I had to reuse the stock wheels and they ended up being flush with the rear qaurters. it looked good but I have lowering springs so everytime I hit a bump the tires slammed into the car.
