tire help I'm looking in to getting the C6 ZO6 wheels for my 99 Camaro but I'm running into the problem of what tires to use. As of now, the wheels I want to get are 17x9.5 (front) and 18x10.5 (rear). They are recommending 265/40-17s for the front and 295/35-18 for the rear. Im having a hard time finding good tires at those sizes. And would i run into any gap issues up front since it's a smaller tire than the stock set-up? I dont want it to look funny.
What are your suggestions? I would really appreciate the help. Thank you!

"They" would be the website from which i found the wheels. But if that same tires as stock would work up front, then that should be fine.
And a lot of the C6 ZO6 wheels are 18x9.5 up front, but i couldnt find anything wider then a 10.5. I might have been looking on wheels up to 18" though, not quite sure
