Default wheel upgrade ??
Im going to put C5 Z06 Chrome Motorsport Style Wheel (18x10.5). what would the tire specs be? and does anyone have a suggestion on tires, they would be street tires.

295/35/18s(26.13"), or 315/30/18s(25.44").
Your best selection, and prices will be with the 295/35/18s.

Or you have the 305 Nitto. Those seem to fit pretty well on a 10.5 rim.

If you haven't purchased the wheel yet, we do have that size available.
