Has anyone experienced these tires yet?? I am currently running the new Z06 wheels on the back of my 2000 vette. The tires are 325-19 and I am having a little bit of rubbing when the suspension compress'. I am trying to find a new tire that will give me a little bit more room back there. I was looking at 305 or 315. my rims are the 11.5 wide. Discount tire told me I could go to a 295, but I don't want my rim sticking way out there. What do you guys suggest I put on to give me a little bit more room, but still keep the wide look??????

ive had them on my 02 with zo6 18/19 setup. i have about 430 rwhp and have no traction issues when i get on it. They are a neat looking tire and i get good complements on the looks. i only use them as my ddriver tires, so i dont push them extremely hard except on acceleration. i would have to say i would buy them again

Just put 295/35/18 Nitto "Invo's" on my C5 9.5" rims...they ride great! Good DDriver Tires. BUT...I Have to run them at 25 lbs. to get traction @ WOT in 1st,2nd & 3rd. At 30lbs.(cold) 33lbs.(hot) they lost traction bad when I got on it (493rwhp). The Nitto 555DR's I had, tracked better, but 8000 miles is all I could get on them...Invo's should get much better mileage, I'm told.
