Anyway, some tire companies run more narrow/wide than others, but 315s will fit your 18x10.5 wheel and look good:
Do you see any bulge here?


From the factory the C5 Z06 comes with 265 front, 285 rear. You can run 275 front, 315 rear.
um z06 is 295 rear just to correct the info there

275/40-17 and 295/35-18.

Don't look at aspect ratio and immediately assume there's no tire there. It's 35% of the 295 width. So it's about the same as the 275/40... it will be taller because the rear is on a larger rim.

No, they didnt. Its a 295 35 18 rear. Every one came with those and Goodyear F1s. Fronts, you are correct.
