Default Just making SURE

I was about to buy some Nitto 555r's from Discount, but just wanted to MAKE SURE they would fit before I bought them. They are "285/35ZR-18 97Y B," and they would go on with my 10.5" wide Z06 repros.

I read the sticky, just wanted to make sure I wasn't overlooking something. THANKS!

Nitto recommends a wheel width range between 9.5 and 11 inches with a 10 inch rim being optimal. 10.5 should be fine.

I did a little more research, and discovered I could run 315s

Anyone have experience with this? If all I have to do is the BFH mod, then cool!

You wont need the BFH with 10.5's and Nittos. The Nittos run slightly narrower than other manufactures. A 315 Nitto will fit perfectly with no modifications, a 285 will be too small. Good luck!
