Z06 tires on a C5

Do they make F1 Supercar tires that would fit my C5 roadster?

I would like to put C5-Z06 tires on my stock 2002 C5 wagon wheels. I want to wind up with the same tire outside diameter after all is said and done. I do not want any speedometer issues...

So I was thinking, do they make the F1 supercar tires in C5 sizes?

Thanks again
Matt

Your speedo will be a couple of mph off, no big deal.

I may be wrong, but it appears goodyear doesn't make this size.

If there is anyone actually running F1 super car tires on a C5 wagon wheel, what size tire are you using
