I have the same setup as PCBUNN, and you should know that the Michelins have the appearance of being wider than other tires due to the large section of rim guard that sticks out past the rim a little more than other brands.

I'm running CCW 19 x 11 Rears. With Michelin PS2 305 30 19's.. I agree with Blue Blood. The rim or edge guard makes the tires look even wider. You can see it best in my first photo.





And one money shot!

Very nice pics. My dilema is, is that I have a 10" rim, not an 11". I am wondering what this tire size looks like on a 10" rim.

I wanted to see the same thing! I have 19x10" wheels on order as well... Issue being that is only 10"s wide... All the rims in this thread seem to be 11 or wider...

I was told to use a 285 tire... But I feel like it will LOOK like Im riding on 2 tooth picks...

Much better than the previous kumho spt's. Probably not as good as PS2s. They seem to grip very well in the corners wich is what I want out of them.

Hey Torch,

I recently did a google search and came across your 305's on the back of your vette on some factory c6 wheels:

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-z...rs-please.html

I have the same wheels on the back of my c6z:



I am running 285 eagle f1's with a 1.25" spacer to clear the inner fender wells. I dont think I needed that big a spacer and I'm looking at getting the michelin ps2 305/30/19's put on and I think it'll just look silly (Sticking out) but I'm afraid to move them in too much by getting a smaller spacer AND get a wider tire- i'l end up rubbing on the inside. Any wisdom on this?
