So let me ask this???

I was reading that for the traction controll active hocus pics stuff to work I have to run the stager in wheel sizes. I see some guys run 18s all around. My question is do I need to run the mix in sizes or not?

For AH to work the rear circumference of the tires needs to be 1/2 to 1 1/2 inches larger than the fronts. Wheel size is not the factor.

You obviously don't read closely, it's DIAMETER (not circumference but they are related, nobody measures tires in circumference) difference of the TIRES.

Yeah, I screwed up. On vacation in Florida and we started partying early-again. Thanks for correcting.

Since the front and rears are different width's anyway, why not just run with the factory setup anyway?

You were right if you just divide by π

I have the thin chrome spokes but like the Z06 wheels. I have found a couple sets some are staggered some aren't. I also like the C6 wheels and may go that way.
