I'm a visual kind of guy and I was curious what the size difference was between the 2016 Z51 I had and the new 2017 GS I just bought. Posting here for anyone else curious or in the middle of choosing between the two. The larger tires really make a noticeable impact on the car's handling. The GS is a world class handling vehicle, I couldn't be happier with it.

This is awesome, thanks for posting. Did not realize the tires are bigger at the time I ordered my GS.

Yep, C7 GS has same size as the wheels / tires on C6 ZR1s and C6 427 Convertibles, as well as C7 Z06.

You'll really notice how much bigger they are when you have to replace them.

But also bought Discount Tire warrenty for my new Grand Sport tires. If more than one flat in a tire (max Michelin allows) or the nail, etc is near the side wall I will get a new tire. It is pro rated based on tread wear. Good for max 3 years for $255.

Yep they are warranting the tires that came with the car. Checked with Firestone, who I have used up to this new Discount Tire that just opened. They wanted $325 for the same coverage.
