Hi all,

Gettin ready to order my new C5 soon and want to replace the stock wheel/tire's. Will these sizes work without any modification? and in your opinions, will it look good. Performance/Handling jeopardized with this size wheels/tires ??? I am a real dummy when
it comes to picking tire sizes.

I want 18x9.5 front with 265/35/18 rubber
and 19x10.5 rear with 295/35/19 rubber

Pilot Sports makes this rubber size but
What do you think of overall looks and performance?

Thanks

Just buy these from me. 19" just weigh more and cost more ...

2 -- 18X10 with Michelin Pilot Sports 275/35/18

2 -- 18X11 with Michelin Pilot Sports 295/35/18

Tires have 75% tread left. The wheels are fantastic and fit perfectly on my Z06.
