Hi everyone, I have a 2020 lowered C8 Stingray with Paragon lowering rings. I have Forgedlite wheels MC 5 and I have 325/25/21, and 245/30/20 on the car now. I am not crazy about the look of the hight of the sidewall on these tires { Michelin } they were recommended to me by Forgelite. I would like to have more of a sidewall, i want to run 325/30/21, and 245/25/20 these are available in a run flat also. Thanks for all those who respond. Wayne

Well, you shouldn't have gone with larger diameter wheels than stock if you don't like super low profile tires. I know the Z06 comes with the 20/21" combo but I just don't like the tire profile. I think I would be happier with an 18/19" setup.

I already said that...... can you run the larger size tires with out problems....ie codes being set ?

I have 325/30/21 rears and 255/35/20 fronts with zero codes and zero issues (5000 miles). The speedometer is slightly off, but I don't care about that.

Just so you are aware, there are folks on here that will say this is the "incorrect" way to have your tires setup because of the different diameters. The car does sit very slightly higher (.6 inches). I did it because I have the FE1 non adjustable suspension and I wanted to fix the wheel gap. I love it.....

Thank you Semifighter18 there is someone on here that has common sense after all. That is what I was looking for!

Like those sizes you choose for him as well for more sidewall on thale's MC5's, but it appears he want's a ZP tire.

I would assume if he own's a high performance wheel like the MC5 he is probably not running All Seasons. Those sizes you suggest are not made in ZP by Michelin in Pilot Sport 4S.

Just sayin, I have never owned a ZP tire and never will.

This is exactly what I have planned for tire sizing. Thanks for confirming this works.
any pics of your car with this set up?

Semifighter18

Here's a pic.......of note, I originally had 265s on the front. Rubbed. I cut the front mud guards and dropped to 255s and no more rubbing. Not sure if this 255 front setup will rub on stock front mud guards.

Do you having rubbing in the rear with the 325/30/21?

Note that his car is NOT lowered. The fact they he has no clearance issues doesn't mean your lowered car won't.

Semifighter18

Excellent point, I should have emphasized that. My car is an FE1 and the reason I did what I did is because I didn't want to put aftermarket lowering springs on but I wanted to get rid of the wheel gap.

Semifighter18

Zero rubbing whatsoever on the rear. No track time on this car (I've tracked cars before), but I've cornered hard enough (on camber) that I know there is significant compression on the suspension.

I still have a set of tires from my c7 z06.
will a 335/25/20 fit on a c8 stingray rear?
