at minimum 285/35/18, depending on what tire you go with, you can go up to a 305/35/18. I went with Nitto 555's and 285/35/18 when I had my Z06's. BFG makes a 295/35/18 Drag radial that is very popular as well.

F1 GSD3's are nice and then BFG's for drag radial.

I just put a set of 295/35/18 BFG G-Force TA KDW's on the rear. I'm lowered quite a bit and have no rubbing problems. They stick 10000 times better than what I took off so I'm happy.
