  • new shoes for the 'maro from uncle sam

    Hard work pays off...and it's about time for uncle sam to return some of my hard-earned tax money:rock: I'm planning on getting a completely new rims and tires setup consisting of replica c6 z06 17x9.5 & 18x10.5, and I'm doing my homework on the best bang-for-your-buck z-rated tires to match up. I've concluded that one of the best setups to go with is probably a set of 275/40/zr-17 and a set of 295/45/zr-18, respectively. I'm looking for suggestions for tires for those sizes that will offer great all around traction (weather here can go through all 4 seasons in a day practically), and great cornering and streetability. I've come across these Nitto Nt555's:

    Does anyone have experience with these tires or know of any comparable fits? I'm open to suggestions or insight on other brands. thanks in advance.

    for a suggestion, a lot of people who i talked to said they didnt like the staggered look with two different size rims

    and if IIRC when you do the stagger thing, it will cause your abs light to come on from the different readings on the wheel speed sensors if you dont match the tires up good enough to compensate for size

      not to be rude, but i started this thread asking for useful opinions and suggestions on tires for my setup, the rims are not up for debate and i understand the benefits and concerns of my choice. the rims stated are there for reference, not questioning---i've seen waaaay too many useless arguments start from stuff like that on here.

      so that being said, can anyone give me any pointers on my tires?
