would these or even polys adversely affect a stock suspension setup while waiting to get coilovers & bigger sways? i occasionally road race & do mountain runs, so i'm thinking the polys would be an acceptable medium

this may eliminate 28" tall tires from hitting front of wheel liner also

So why doesn't the factory do this? At least on the ZO6's where your paying for a better performing car.

Because they sell to the masses. They design to the masses. Not to the 1% that will actually track the car.
