Cool. I was hoping they would do this. I only wish they'd also have a 305 / 18 option for the rear.

fcalmes, by chopping do you mean the brake duct or something else?

What NO 315 X 18!!!. Frank; I think that the only real fit problem is with 335 size that end up sticking out about a half inch.

The stock tires on my Z already stick out about a half inch. Thus, why I am always having to remove black dots from the side of my car due the tire black spray and I have stone damage on my side vents.

I think that is probably a typo.

So does anyone know if they will fit without tubbing?

I dont know if this helps but I had a set of 315 tires on 11 inch GS rims on my 00 corvette. They fit fine but stuck out a bit farther than the stock tires. I hope it was a typo and that they will be available in the 315 size in 18 inch cause I need more rubber on the ground.

305's or 315's would be nice but they must be 18's
