some use 345/30/19 instead of 325/30/19 tires on rear. if you do and have "Engine drag Control ", size fronts to 1.1 inches of OD of back tires. i filled out the 3rd party limited warrenty and it states oversized tires limits/voids warrenty, just a f.y.i.
see... http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-z...this-mean.html

those are the notes i printed and saved before i had mine installed a couple weeks ago.

Thanks for the links, looks like good reading. Can you pm me a price and dealer?

Any leads in the Miami area?

I could install also so if I get a good deal.
Thanks

Forgot to ask if the 07 issues apply to 06 as well?

Thanks again

The install is not all that difficult. A couple of how-to threads...

The best scenario is to have it done for when I come back. I will give them a call today in the morning (pm in Afghanistan) and check t see if they will do it.

I wrench for a living but I wont have that much time when on R & R.

Rather be driving than wrenching anyway!!

Franko,

Were you able to reach them? I know how hard it can be coordinating a call from overseas. Shoot me a PM if you need any help. I do a lot of business with them and would love to help get you connected with them (especially given your geographic disparity situation!!)!
