Just Upgraded wheels and tires for C6 / Track

[wneal]

Just got my new C5 Z06 10.5 x 18 rears all the way round for my C6 Coup and am moving up a size in Hoosier R6's to 315's.

whoooohooooooooooooo
Can't wait to try em out.

"Square" 18's?
Same aspect F/R?
If same size, any problems with ABS/AH/TC?

No problem with running 17" or 18" square to rotate tires (left to right and front to rear) throughout the season. I know some are running 315s front and rear with no TC/AH/ABS issues.

You have any pictures of the new wheels on the car?

Have been running 18's x 295's square for the past year with no problems at all.
One "incident" at Putnam but it seems to me and some others who know a whole lot more than me that it was an alignment problem. Too much toe.

Since then, Danny Popp has taken over the alignment and the car is really dialed in. My last two events, Putnam and VIR, the car handled better than ever.

I have been running in comp mode but will try to turn it all off this spring.

Just dropped them off today to have the tires mounted. Will get some pics this week.
Probably wont be on the car though till April. I still have some 295's to use up.

Will be a few weeks before I put them on the car but this is what they look like




This is my 315's stack as it compares to the 295's.
I imagine this will give me just a bit more cornering ability.





BTW
If this disease gets any worse, I'm gonna need a bigger truck

They look great. They're going to be lots of fun.
