Track tires
What are folks who track the C7 ZO6 using for traCK TIRE/WHEEL set up? Can you run the track wheels onthe ZO6 without the TPMS or will the car **** down if no sensors detected?

It's a Z06 subject ?
R-comps are no problem in 345/30-19 or 325/30-19 rear tire size. There are 40tw R-comps and 100tw R-comps.
Street tires that are also track tires are a problem. In 325/30-19 there is only the RE-11 since TR shows the Sport Cup 2 as a closeout.
And in the OEM Z06 tire sizes there is only the runflat Sport Cup 2.
There is something when going shorter in diameter. The Rival in 315/30-18 front and 335/30-18 rear.

315/30/19 front and a 345/30/19 rear $1,864 including FREE shipping and NO tax. Now for the bad news the wheels have to be custom ordered starting at $5,000 a set.
These guys have been helpful.

The pressure and temperature does have some effect on the system - I'm not sure how much, but it's tied into the CCM. Not worth the chance of reduced power or worse for such a cheap item.
