This is the best tier for C5 Corvette which you use. I have searched about it. It is Toyo Proxes T1-R High Performance set of tier. This set include two front 245/45ZR-17 and two back side 275/40ZR-18.

245/55/17s are going to be way too tall. Even if they fit, you will run into AH/TCS issues. Regardless of that, it will look dumb because your front tires will be taller than your rears. Don't put them on.

I purchased mine at Town Fair Tire (eastcoast chain) and absoluty love them. They hold their own even in cold weather.
Dont get me wrong, unless your running a true winter tire, no performance tire is traction stable in cold weather but the T1R tires are the best Ive run yet when the temps drop below 35 deg.
There outstanding in the summer! EXCELLENT Handling, NO noise and the wear is very good!
Rears = 315-25-ZR19
Fronts = 275-30-ZR19
