I plan on drag racing my c5. I will be running c6 oem wheels on front 245/40/18 and c5 wagon wheels on rear with 255/35/18 nitto 555's. I'm new to drag racing. I just want to know will these size nittos fit properly on rear wagon wheels?Any advice

Why so narrow? 275 was stock width... You would at least want to go with the normal width, if not wider (and taller).
Or, you could find a used pair of C5Z rear rims, and go 315....
(the tires on the bottom are 245's from a different car LOL)
