Default Just bought wheels and need some input

hey everyone i just got 2006 zo6 wheels and they are (2) 17x9.5 and (2) 18x10.5 and i was wondering if the rear rims will fit and if 245/40/17 in the front and 275/35/18 in the rear would be a good fit... thanks in advance for all advice.

Z06 Corvette Replicas:

17"x9.5" +50 to +56 mm no problems. 275/40R17.

18"x9.5" +50 to +56 mm 275/35R18 or 285/35R18.

18"x10.5" +50 to +53 mm. Higher than 53 mm will require the BFH mod. 285/35R18s thru 315/30R18. Over 295 may require rolling the fenderlip and will need the BFH. +58 mm is the typical available offset for the Z06 replica, which will require a little BFH and/or a small spacer.

So I ended up switching the tires I have 245/40/17 in the front and 265/35/18 but will end up doing 295 in the rear with a 50 profile tire unless its not recommended
