Default Need Help making Decision onTires to Get. Please Help

I just bought 2 17/9.5 for the front and 2 18/10.5 Z06 wheels chrome for the rear. I want wide tire in the back like 305 or 315. I don't want to much tire showing also. What is a good set-up to run for the rear and the front??

Yep, those would work and are good tires. You could also do BFGoodrich KDW's, -275/295. They are an excellent performer w/ good treadlife. Plus they have a very unique tread design w/ great visual appearance. If you want more traction just switch up the rears for DR's.

Thats what my buddy has on his 03 ZO6 and looks great, except he has the 555R's out back.

Do they make T/A KDW 2 in 275/40/17?
