Tire size suggestions??
I want to take my C5 up to 18" fronts and 19" rears.
What are some recommended tire sizes that you guys (who are running 18 & 19's) use?
I do NOT want to go to the C6 sizes as I think they are too narrow.

Really wishing that I would have tubbed and put the 335's on the back originally. I like my rims and am too cheap to toss them just for wider sneakers 
Now is your chance. Think Norm Clemmer was going that way. He was looking for a local shop with experience.

You don't have much to choose from, so it should make deciding rather easy. I would suggest one of these combos:
265/35/18 front and 305/30/19 rear (Pirelli)
or
275/35/18 front and 295/35/19 rear (Michelin or Yokohama)
Without tubbing, those are about the only options I know of. The 19" is very limited in available tire brands and suitable sizes.
