Default A little help for christmas gift

just bought my son a set of Corvette C6 Z06 Wheels - Black 18x10.5 / 18x8.5 Set off of oewheels and was wondering what size tires i could fit on them without any modifications to his car. He has a 2000 Z28. Thanks for the help

You're an awesome dad!

Personally I'd run a 265/40/18 front and 305/35/18 rear. Alternatively, you could go with a 255/40/18 and a 295/35/18 rear.

It's difficult to say what will rub and what won't since we don't have the offsets for the wheels you bought. BUT, I would imagine these should fit with no issues. Keep in mind that with an OEM set of C5 Z06 wheels you will have to do a little bit of massaging to the inner fender on the rear to get them to fit (they are 295/35/18 on a 10.5" wheel).

Best of luck!
