I have 325x25x20 on 11.5" wide rims. They fit very nice. I used to have a 305x25x20, but they tire was not wide enough to protect the rim, and it got scuffed up. Just make sure your tire rubber is a little wider than the rim, and you should be OK. The reason for a 25 profile, is to keep the height closer to what the car was designed for.

The only problem that i have been having with my vette even when i had my original wheels is that steering wheel will shake and the car will vibrate after 50mph. I lower the car like about 2 years ago.... it might be possible that i need alingment??

Yea if you lowered the car and haven't done an alignment you certainly need to.

So i got good deal on some 3 piece wheels.
. They are 20x8.5 and 20x10. I like them better then the stocks but the only thing i hate is the thin tire. Front is 245/30/20 the rear is 295/25/20. The front is ok but the rear tires can be a little bit bigger then /25/(tall). So does any one running 20's on their vette.how tall of a tire i can go without rubbing the inner walls.
Sorry the car is dirty...
