Will Vette Grand Sport rear flares bolt to a 4th gen?

I am considering adding 335's in the back. And thought that if the Grand Sport rear flares would bolt up it would save alot of time and money. Vs say having one offs made and then molded in and painted.


Anyone ever done this.

BTW this is a autox car so it's not for appearance. But I also don't want it to look hacked.

Because the 315's barely fit. I get occasional rubbing in the back on the insides. But I can't use a spacer or I will get rubbing on the outside.

With a 17x12 and a 335 a flare would have to be used.

This is all on R-compound race tires.


335's will give me a little more traction for Pro Solo starts.
