I will be ordering a set of 18/9.5 and 18/10.5 Z06 replicas and not sure on the front tire size. Im running a 275/35 on my T/A and they look/fit great but what about the Vette. The package comes with 265/35 for the front and 295/35 for the rear. Should I stick with the 265/35 or is there a better option.

Im new to the Vette scene, need oppinions.

I did a search but only found F-body fitments.

 

Alot of guys run 275s up front on the C5. I will be going this route when I purchase a set of tires for my car. I am still on the factory supercars.

 

i've got 275's in the front of my vette, no issues. They are on 17" rims though alot of guys go with 18's all the way around i know.. 18/295's back~Cole~

 

265 is a good number size for that WIDTH wheel. It'll work.

I'm running a 18x10.5" wheel in front....295's. At full lock, my wheels kiss the A arms. Not a big deal,..but, needless to say, it does. Tires don't rub at all though.

 

Thanks for the help guys!

 

I'm running 18's all around and run 275/35/18 Khumo's up front without any issues.

 

so will runing a tire in the front lets say a 265/35/18 and a 295/35/18 in the rear....will that mess up the traction control? a guy at "westcoast corvettes" told me in order to run 18's all around i had to have a taller tire in the rear. Is this true??

 

I've got the origanal rear 18x10.5 up front with 275-35-18 on it and 18x12 out back with 335-30-18. have had no rubbing or ABS issues at all , and the front is lowerd a little over a inch.

 

I have 19x10's up front with 275/35/19's plenty of room... I will actually be going bigger when its time for tires.

Keep in mind its not always the rim and tire size that matters,,, the offset is a big deal
