Okay, here is the dilemma tho...if i was to get the 19" Black DD Z06 rims..i found some 295/30/19 tires for the back and i had a friend give me some Michelin Pilot 255/30/19....would the 255s fit on a 19x10 for the front....i mean the tires were free and have 80% tread left so i don't want to waste them....just need some opinions on it...thanks

It's not my car so do as you would like, but the biggest issue I see with the car is the stripes on the fender.
