Default Need tire recommendations...

Looking for a set of tires... The wheels are HRE 545R 20x11" rear and 19x9.5" front for a 2005 C6. What size and brand of tires would you recommend? I'm having a hard time finding a decent sized 20" tire...

Thanks,

Rick

It really depends on what you want to do with your car. are you a drag guy or a handling guy? I personally like to be able to take corners like crazy, and if you're the same way, i'd suggest kumho supra's. Excellent handling tires, and not too hard on the wallet either. Problem is...i dont know if they make them in 20's. I also ran across these tires by the name of Avon. I read quite a bit about them and supposedly they're some of the best gripping tires there are handling wise. For normal street dragging, i'd recommend Gforce TA kdw-2. That is an excellent tire for getting up and going as well as taking the turns.
