Need help with tire sizes
I have a 19/20" set up no my 01 z06. The front tires are 255/35/19's and I need some new back tires. I was wanting to go with 305/25/20's will this work or will I have tracktion control issues? Thanks

The front and rear tire sizes are almost identical in overall diameter. Since the traction control system is expecting to see the rear tires rotating slower than the fronts, it is not only possible, but likely that you will have an issue.
Depending on the width of the wheels, you might consider adjusting the sizes.

Check tire size availability, and plug your choices into the calculator.
