New tires??
I have a 2001 Z06 that I recently purchased. The previous owner upgraded the wheels to the chrome Z06 20" rear 19" front. I love the look of them so I will be keeping them on there. I will sadly need new tires soon (next few months) and was wondering what was recommended. It is a d/d and may go to the track one day, but probably not haha. Any recommendations in both run flat and non run flat. I know those 19's are not going to be cheap. Thanks!!

I will be installing Michelin Pilot Super Sports once my BFG KDW2s wear out...
For your setup, the 295/25ZR20 rear with the 265/30ZR19 front will be the closest to factory specs

Click "Tires by brand" and go to Michelin, Pilot Super Sport; then pick the sizes you want
305/25ZR20 with 275/30ZR19 will also work
You have plus size wheels

It's telling me that the 275/30/19 is not available in the ps2. Is there another size that would work with the 305 rear??

You're not supposed to be looking at the PS2; I gave you those sizes because I know for a fact they are available in the Pilot Super Sport line, which is better than the Pilot Sport 2 and less expensive, to boot.
