kdw2 or D3 they were my choice. I went with the kdw2
the od of the rear tire was a little taller (285). a little more sidewall
to fill the 4x4 wheel well on stock bolts.

I believe that the GY Supercar tires (the model found on Z06s) is also available in "coupe" sizes, i.e., 245/45-17 and 275/40-18. Thus you wouldn't need wider wheels.

For budget reasons I went with the Firestone Wide Ovals for my 02' Z06. Just completed my 1st AutoX on them (grip was better than I expected). I've put about 500 hwy miles on them. So far I'm happy. Installed, the set cost about $750 at a local Firestone store.

Thanks,
Vince

You can actually fit the z06 sizes on the "coupe" size as you call it.

I went with 295 rear and 275 front how ever. This corrects a lot of over steer issues.
