I would buy a set in a heart beat! 295,305,315,325,335 any of those would be perfect. I cant get traction untill a 100 with my 19's .
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HAVE THEM COME OUT!

I would be happy with a 305 wide 19" version. But, I'd settle for a 295 since it is better than nothing at all.

DR's are ok,but I'd rather have a choice of 555's for road use. Z06 stock sizes please.

Alternate solution would be 18" X 10" or 18" X 11" wheels in the proper offsets for a C6 rear. Seems to be a better choice of tires in 18", road race, autocross and drag.

I have at least 20-30 customers that would buy a Nitto drag radial in 335 or 345 x19

Default Keep it coming

Thank you for the responses. Keep them coming. Nitto is monitoring the link. Here is the response from Nitto reguarding the DR's. Looks good for us.

Dear Ted Cucci,
Thanks Ted for your efforts. I have forwarded the link. It
seems like the demand will be pretty good.


Thank you,

I think they will be cool.. But they need to put a side wall on them or they will be like the 305/35/18's Dr's I blow them off first gear.. Were I need a 60ft... But, Good Idea gotta stay with the Rims Coming Out!


Thanks, Steve
