Default 320/650 tire on a C6Z?
Anyone ran that size up front on a C6Z? I got a pair by mistake and was just curious if anyone has made it happen. I am probably just going to get 305/645 instead.

That is a good sized tire up there. How wide of a wheel?

Should be able to do it, but I think you are going to have to cut the inner fender liner so the body doesn't hit. At least that is what I have had to do in the past with that big of a tire in the front.

Then they should be the same as the Conti's I ran last season. I fit them on my C5 with 11.5" rims and 3/4" wider fenders. It's going to really depend on your ride height. How low are you?

Actually I just looked back at the specs. That tire is less than a quarter inch taller and wider than a 315/30/18 Hoosier A7 or R7. You might not want to sell those....
