Default 2001 Z-06 Tires

Hello,
I have a 2001 Z-06 and I am contemplating new tires. I currently have Bridgestone Potenza's ( 295/35 R 18's and 265/40 R 17's), but am thinking about going back to the original size. I bought the car used and dont know what the original size tires may have been. Any thoughts as it relates to tires on a 01 Z-06 ? Thank you

What you have now are the OEM sizes.

You're going to have very few choices in OEM sizes. For more choices you can go to 275/40/17 in the front.

Stepping up one size is no big deal. I ran Nitto NT05s....decent grip and price.
