295/40/17 on 9.5 Z06 front wheel?
Hi Everyone,
Any experience on running a Kumho 295/40/17 V710 on the stock 9.5" Z06 wheels? Do they rub on lowered cars? When viewing the tires from the top of the fender, do they stick out?
Feedback appreciated!

315 on a 9.5" rim? Your tire installer must love you
Thanks for the feedback!

295/40 fits, no problem. I've run them for the last two years in autocross. I don't have my front end as low as the factory bolts allow, because the car works much better with a little front ride height, so I can't answer on rubbing on a drastically lowered car.
If you haven't bought tires yet, Hoosier makes a 295/35 which is a better size, particularly when you consider that their rear 315-18 is a 30 aspect ratio...again, a better size for our cars than the V710.
