19 inch DR
Why doesn't any tire company make a 19 inch drag radial
I mean really i know this topic has come up before but if they can make a 20 inch then it should be possible to do a 19inch. Every corvette since 05 has had 19 inch on the back and also vipers. I don't know the exact number but i know its thousands of cars! Do they do this just so we will buy 20's are 18's

Because there are way more cars other then Vettes or Vipers on the road that use a 18" or now a 20" drag radial. Really is pretty simple, design an 18" or 20" that 100,000 Mustangs (amongst several others) will use or design a 19" for a fraction of the use. Word is that a 19" is in the works from Nitto.

Ok I did a little research
This is the total number of c6's produced up to the 08 models 161,478 and that is not including ZO6's here is the break down
Mid year production from the start of 04 to dec 7th 04=13,714
Model 05=37,372
Model 06=34,021
Model 07=40,561
Model 08=35,310
Model 08 hertz=500
A grand total of 161,478 cars and i think there are a few more because i coudn't find the pace car numbers. But my point is i think this would be plenty enough potential customers for a 19 inch DR
