Hi, everyone! I am new to the forum, but i have been searching for a while and need some help with wheel/tire fitment on a 1979 Trans am.

What i have is PTFB front lower and upper control arms with their Comp springs. In the rear I have VBP composite leaf springs. I have a fender lip roller and should be able to get that lip rolled under no problem.

I was told that a 0 offset wheel (both front and rear) with 275/35R18 up front and 295/35R18 in the rear will fit. does anyone on this site currently run this set up.

I see a lot of guys running the 275 up front, but none with 295's in the rear. most everyone does a mini-tub and can stick 315 or 335 in the rear. I dont have the means or funds to do that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
