new but not new!
Aloha folks! I am new to this forum but not new to Chevy and not new to many other forums. I am now on the list for a new C 8, due in June 2020. I currently drive a 2018 ZL1 1LE. Black on black and more black.
Also daily a Tesla Model S. Cars are one of my main things so this is a perfect place to get some knowledge and answers. This is just the intro so I will take my questions to the proper forums.
But just in case I get lucky,.. I changed my mind of color from Ceramic Silver to Black, what else? I am always looking to change and personalize my cars..albeit slightly. But my question is...I would like my car to have bigger tires front and rear! I just don't know if that would work as the rims are now or would it require different wheels? Thinking...275 fr 315 rear.
Thanks for any advice and help. This should be fun!!

Hi Freddie. Welcome to the forum. Like was suggested do check out the C8 General forum and post your tire question. There are lots of people who plan on getting after market rims and probably wider tires so take advantage of all that info they have gathered.

Congratulations on yoru C8 order and welcome to the CF 
I also daily drive a Tesla as well. It's not a Vette, but I don't try and compare them as they are very cool cars unto themselves. May want to keep that on the down-low here, some members....
