I'm planning on getting 17" z06 wheels and putting 245/40/17 on the front and 275/40/17 on the back. I am also probably going to lower the car 1.75". Should that all fit properly without rub or anything?

As long as you get wheel fitments designed for the Fbody, ie. around 56mm offset.
I wouldn't put a 245 on a 9.5" wide wheel, it'll look too narrow.
If you're getting the 17/18" staggered wheels they are usually a 8.5" front and 9.5" rear. Then you could do a 245/45R17 and 275/35R181994 Firebird 3.4<br />15.65 @ 86.8<br /><a href=\"http://www.funkz.net/firebird.htm\" target=\"_blank\">funkz.net/firebird</a><br /><a href=\"http://mywebpages.comcast.net/funkz/timeslips.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Timeslips</a>

I would also like to add that I had to get an adjustable PHB and grind off my rear bumpstops.
I mean I didn't HAVE to grind them off, but for piece of mind that my PHB with loctite in it comes undone and my tire rubs at 70+mph.
