Good day eh, Newbie to this forum.

I've read that some Camaros need the HT (hammer technique)mod to allow clearance for 335's on the rear. Do you know if 315/35's would fit right on, and/or are spacers required for adjustment?

Has anyone put 315/35's on the stock ZR1 wheel...(I believe they are 9") or would I have to go to a 10 inch rim?

Welcome. I don't think anyone here has those, but this thread over at LS1 should answer most of your questions.

Great. Thanks for the referral.

No they will not fit on a 9" wheel, you have to use a 10.5 or 11 inch wheel, and massage the inner fenders with a sledge hammer.

My 315s worked just fine with no rubbing at all and no massaging of the fender well.Its all in the proper backspacing.

Well, you got lucky, I have never heard of them fitting without a little massaging.

Luck had nothing to do with it! Im just that damn good!J/K Really though the only time i have ever heard anybody have a problem with 315s is when they have the wrong backspacing.Now 325 and 335 on the other hand will definitly need a hammer with them to fit.
