They won't fit without modification I dunno how to modify the front wheels wells to accept them but you are gonna have to tub the rear of your car

The vette in this link had to mini tub to fit 12.5's in the rear

that be so badass to have that much rubber without rubbing issues. with those it wouldnt even be rubbing issues, you probably couldnt even get them on the lugs with 13 inch wide.

You'd need some serious offset on the wheels. I wouldn't do it on an F-body anyway unless you had the money to have the rear fenders flared to match.

Yup, your going to have to mini tub the back. Why not just get a new pair and the right size for $1800. 18x13 would look pretty sweet. I wonder if it's pretty easy tubing the back?
