Put some on yesterday with C6 wheels so far so good. They really look good and have a much improved ride. I went with stock sizes.

I have the stock sizes of these tires. Put 'em on in August and they rock. No complaints.

use them on both my vette and my BMW. Absolutely love them. Instant difference from stock tires. They feel more confident inspiring. Just my $.02.

If wear isn't an issue these are my first choice. I've used them on a lot of my cars. They are as good as or better than a lot of tires 2 & 3x as expensive.

I am running these sizes/Nitto's. The rears barely fit and I am running on an 11 1./2" wide wheel. The other thing I found with teh 295/45's is when you really push the car hard, you can feel the sidewall giving ever so slightly. However the 45 will really fill up the wheel well.

Pics of said tire? I hate fat/thick sidewalls.
