Optimal wheel/tire size? For SCCA SS class.
I am planning on running a 98C5 in autox, SS class.
What is the optimal tire size for the 17x8.5" fronts and for the 18x9.5" rears?
I will have an addco 32mm front sway and Bilstein shocks, if that helps any in the equation.

Am I missing something here?
Tire calculator says the 275's will work up front but the 295's require a 10.5-11.5" wide wheel. My stock rear wheel is only 9.5" and to stay in SS I have to keep it.
Will the 295's go on a 9.5" wheel?
