Default Tires

Was wondering if anyone knew what’s that widest tire I can get on stock rims on a C7?

per generic guidelines, 255 up front and 285 in the back.

if you find a shop that doesn't care, you could probably stretch 305s on the rear and 275 or 285s up front.

fender clearance becomes a concern though. take some measurements and do some maths.

255/35/19 front and 295/30/20’s rear is a perfect fit for Z51
