I have Pirelli P-Zero Rosso's all the way around. I have C6 wheels as well. I have 265/35/18 in front and 295/30/19 in rear. They have amazing grip and traction, but after 5000 miles, they're already starting to wear a bit. Not to mention the price... =/

Please post pics...I WAS going to go with those sizes, but then sold the 18" fronts and opted for the 19x10's all the way around. I'd like to see what my original plans would have looked like.

...it depends on what the tire manufactures says is OK...most say a 295 is too big for a 10" rim....a 285/30/19 would be PERFECT on the rear because it's the stock wheel height.

The best prices for a decent tire IMO is the General Exclaim UHP.

I have 285/35/18 on the back with 18x10.5" C6 rims. They barely fit
the rims. I have 305/40/18's coming. I would go with a Minimum of a 295 on a 10" rim!
