Need Large Rubber
Do any of you know what is the largest size rubber I can mount on my '92 SSE stock rims without:
1. Having clearance problems?
2. Without throwing my speedo out of sync?
I'm running 225 60 16'* now. I'm thinking of going with 235 50 16'*.
Thanks

Check out this site. It is in our techinfo section under tire sizes.
http://www.c5-corvette.com/tirecalc.htm
You can put in you size of tire and have it cacluate every tire and wheel size that stays within a specified difference. It will also calculate the error for your speedometer and odometer from two inputed tire sizes. It is awsome.
The tire you suggested shows it is accually shorter than the stock by 1.38" most tire places recommend staying within .5" to keep the speed and odom close.
