Default What is widest tire that fits?

What is the widest tire that fits the standard C6 19 rear wheels on a 2007 C6 with Z51 package? I need wide 19" rubber for the street because my modded 18" wheels are getting fitted with drag radials. I have been running R888s but I have no traction on the street in first and second. I am going to have to sport drag radials on the street for certain missions.

Not much wider than stock, I'm sure if you wanted to cram some 305 on there you could but they would bulge.

I have run 305's on the stock wheels and that works fine although according to specs they are already to wide for a 10 inch rim. I would not feel safe going wider, even if they fit.

The 19 inch MT's worked pretty decently.
