Default Will 315's R and 275's F fit on the vette?

If i have new rims, will these tires fit in the wheel well? Or do you have to modify?
Thanks in advance.

275/315 is a fairly popular combination.

Assuming that you are talking about a C5, you can generally run 315 all around if you have the wheels.

I run 17in 275F and 315R on a C5 with no issues.

This is what the 275/315 combo looks like in Kumho 710's on stock C5 Z06 rims.

And my sig shows what the 275/315 on 17" ZR-1 replicas looks like.

HTH, and have a good one,
