Default Fitting 345/30/18 in rear?

What do you think the chances of fitting a set of 345/30x18's in the rear of the GT-3 are? I have 315's back there now and don't mind removing the wheel well liner and rollling the fenders. I don't want to modify the body panel though.

What are you going to run in the front? I would imagine you're going to need to run a 265 or 275 to not turn the car into an understeering pig.

Mitch, your fender should already be rolled by the factory. But I'm not lacking for rear end grip, so unless you can fit 255 or 265's up front, it seems like you're putting too much meat on the rear in relation the front. At least I'll be able to pull you on the straights.
