Tire Size Help
I was wondering if anyone here have run 275/40/18 in the front and if they had any problems with them? I just bought my new C6 Z06 wheels and went with 18" all around and would like to go with the 275/40/18 run flats in the fronts on my 99 vert. Will I have any problems going with that size in the front? If you have any pictures with these size tires in front would love to see them.

I run 285/30/18s up front on my stock rear rims with no issues. My car is also lowered on stock bolts. Sorry, no good pics right now.

Yes.................OEM 275/40/18 on all 4 as a matter of fact, no issues with TC/ABS. Each car may act different though
