235/35/19 for the front and 255/35/20 for the rear?

Would this tire combo work on my 1999 Vette? Or would it throw the traction control or anything else off? Thanks in advance!

not only will your car not like those sizes it will look horrible

Ok, what would be a good tire size combination?

Use the online Tire Size Calculator to see what is compatible with your wheel sizes. As point of reference, the stock tire sizes on your '99 were:
* 245/45-17 front
* 275/40-18 rear

You want to keep the OD and f/r ratio similar to stock.

You rock Mr. Lucky! I appreciate it!

Ok. I'm confused now. Luke said those tire sizes wouldn't work, but that web-site said they would. It said to keep the tires within 3% of overall diameter, and I was within approximately 1%.

Also, why would it look so bad? A 255 width isn't that much more narrow than a 275.
