Default Z06
I have a 2001 Z06 that im about to put some new tires on. I want to buy something a little wider for the rears,and want a matching front tire for it. The size in the rear i was thinking of was a 315/30/18 michelin pilot with the matching front 265/40/17 front. I need to know that the rear tires will fit without any rubbing problems. I think they should, but just want some reasurrance. If any one has any pics of their setup on their vette, id like to see that also.

The stock ones are 295's right. If so I wouldn't try to go more than 305.

They are 295's stock, but a 315 would only be about 1 inch wider from what I can figure.
