Tire and wheel question

Due for new tires and wheels. What is the biggest wheel and tire combo that will safely fit on a 2001 Z06?
Looking at JW's C5 chrome Z06 wheels and Bridgestone Potenza or Firestone Wide Ovals tires.
How much bigger than 17X9.5 and 18X10.5 can I go?
Any suggestions on tires and wheels would be appreciated.

bump on this topic

i would like to know my options as well for my 01 z06. I think i'm going to get either a Nt-05 or Bridgestone RE-11s.

My z also has been lowered on stock bolts.

Here is some information for you about choosing the correct tire sizes, and a good web site to help figure it all out.
