Yep, no problem. I am running 275's on all 4 corners with no problems. In fact that is what comes stock with the Z07 option.

Mine had 275's all the way around when I got the car so I cant compare but I can say that it drives and handles great. I'm thinking of putting some 98-C5 wheels on my car that will put me back at 285's or 295's on the rear.

I've been running 275's on the front and 315's on the back since 95. No problems....
