Wider Tires, AH&TC Issues?

atomik748 · 04-22-2008, 05:27 PM

I want to go up in sizes on the front and rear. I am wondering if anyone has had any issues with Active Handling/Traction Control when going with a wider tire? I want to go with 255/35-18 fronts and 305/30-19 rears. Heard lots of good things about Nitto Invos and my GYs are about done. I plan on changing the wheels too, 18x9 front and 19x11 rear. I have a 2006 Z51 Coupe and hope that this is all possible without any issues. With the right offset, they won't stick out or rub on the fenders, right?
I appreciate any help or advice I can get!!
Thanks,
Scott

wider tires will not cause A/H or T/C problems, just rubbing issues that you can initially measure, calculate & prevent. Not maintaining the required height difference between front & rear WILL cause these DIC warnings to light up. Your tire selections mentioned above will work fine on the new wheel sizes you plan to install...and yes the Nitto "INVOs" are great!
