Would it be a good idea to run 7 inch wide wheels on L60s?

Not a good idea as the 10" of tire footprint becomes bulged in the center for much faster wear .

The only reason to do it would be inner/outer tire clearance or back space issues with said wheels
.
A 7" wheel also bulges the sidewall which can create a carcass safety/structure issue in turns and high speed.

Thank you. It won't matter for a while, the radials on the Camaro still have a lot of life in them.
