18" wheel question
Can you put on stock vette rear 18"rims, not zo6 size, with the 275-40 run flats on the fronts and run them at all 4 corners, any issues with this setup. Thanks Denny

Keep in mind that a stock front rim is 17 x 8.5 with a +56mm offset...a stock rear rim is 18 x 9.5 with a +63mm offset. When you work out all the math, the stock rear rims will stick out a 1/4 inch more on the front than your stock 17" wheel does. No big deal and not all that noticeable but just thought you should know
