I am starting a 73 camaro soon and was wondering if anyone has fit wheels that big on a similar car and what steps I will need to take. i am going to be mini tubing the car and putting it on a tube chasis. Any suggestions would be great.

I put 19x13's on the rear of my 71 Camaro, just notched the rear rails and moved the tubs in about 3" or so. I have 1" clearance minimum on both sides of tire (345/30/19). I built up the back side of the notched frame so that it still looks relatively normal, as well as installed 2 trunk floor 'subframes' over the top of the existing frame rails to add a bit of strength. If you email me at [email protected] I can send you some pics this weekend.
