wheels and tires I just got my 99frc vette today... and I am planning on buying the blk zo6 motorsports wheels in the stock 17x9 and 18x10.5 sizes... does anyone here speak the tire language for these sizes? I am looking for tire suggestions as well, I have had the bfg drags before and they had a great hookup.
Thanks
John

I would get 275-40-17's for the front. 315-30-18 for rear's. I have on mine the same fronts and 335-30-18's in the rear. Im probably going to sell them if you interested they are chrome thou.

Stock Z06 size firestone wide ovals here: 265/40/17 for front, 295/35/18 for the rears. In my opinion these are the best bang for the buck tire available. The also have a lip protector to help prevent curb rash. Wheels are from tomz wheels. This whole setup was cheaper than putting on new runflats.
Did you end up getting the one you were previously looking at? Post up pics!!!
