I am looking to add fender flares to my current 1967 Camaro. I need to get bigger tires on the vehicle (front/Back) and do not want to Tub the car.

Can modify the interior fenders up front, but need flares for sure in the back.

I would like to have metal products to merge into the current geometry, but willing to look at anything.

Please let me know any shops or vendors that carry these products! Thanks!

I need to...I need a bigger contact patch both front and back for autocross. Going to blend in and make it look good!

Ouch! Understand...car won Good Guys Cool Camaro award when done...it is a pro touring build but is a show car also...you guys are making it hard! I autocross it and really need more contact...225s up front and 275s in back. Definitely have room up front for more tire to control the massive under steer, might not have to touch the back.

Still looking for ideas from my brethren!

With a Tru Turn front suspension you can fit a 275 on a 9.5 wheel with NO fender mods. 10" wheel with very minor mods. We ran a 68 camaro with 275 tires all around for quite awile the last couple of years...it was very competitive.

I suggest you give Rob a call at No a limit Engineeering. We recently completed an install of his Sniper IFS in my 1968 Camaro and have successfully put 315's on the front with no external body mods. This is a complete subframe that will give you the updated geometry you need to be competitive out on the autocross.
I would also reiterate what others have said here. You have a beautiful car and don't need to carve it up to get more meat underneath. There is also something to be said for not making your car any wider than you have to...some autocross courses...especially at Goodguys events...can be very narrow in places.

Car has TCI IFS installed and I believe we can get a 10" wheel up front with just minor interior fender mods. The flares on the back only and would be very subtle to blend in as best as possible to get a 12" wheel back there.

Know what you mean by narrow Good Guy courses, run Scottsdale several times and no room for error there for sure!

That looks so nice, I would definately Tub it before I messed with the body lines & paint
