Looking to redo a lot on the car this winter. Is this the right progression of setting up a car? This is a NASA ST1

1 Choose tire that will be run. Make tire fit, fender flares ect.
2. Set ride height and alignment.
3. Set Aero, front splitter height and rear wing

What is the optimal slick size for a flared C5 Z06? I've ben running a 305/645/18F 11.5" wheel 315/680/18R 13"wheel It looks like it could take more tire. I know the 335 f 345 r set up in A7s is fast, but want to stay with the Pirelli DHs It seems like the 325/660/18F 325/710/18R could actually be made to fit.
Thoughts?

Let me rearrange this for you in exactly how it will go:

1 Choose tire that will be run. Make tire fit, fender flares ect.
2. Set Aero, front splitter height and rear wing
3. Set ride height and alignment.
4. Run event and review fender/tire rubs and splitter scrubs
5. Readjust ride height and alignment
6. Repeat 5 and 5 at each track and as you get faster with the aero

Hi Volts Z06

With the proper ride heights and wheel offsets you can run the 325/710 and 320/660 (or 320/650) on a C5 with a wide body (This is my setup).

Thanks Hi Volts good to know! I can probably get these sizes from my friends that run them on their LMS ultra r8 Audi, they should have some for fitment purposes. How wide are your front flares?

You mean I won't get it perfect the first try ?

Hi Volts Z06

My front fenders are the 3/4" wider from L5. I know for a fact that I run a 8.5" backspacing on my CCW's in the front.

Hi Volts Z06

FYI- I have a fair amount of 325/710's and 320/650 Conti scrubs for sale. The all have about 4-6 heat cycles on them. They last a LONG time and while they are a harder compound than an R6, once they are hot they are faster and more consistent through a session. I am asking $75-100 per tire depending on the number of heat cycles. PM me if interested.

Hey do you have any pics of these on your car?
