For CAM-C, I’d like to get tires for my 95 Z28 to go on a set of C5 Z06 18x10.5s. I’m leaning toward the 275 35 18 RE71s. I know there are wider options in other brands, but are they faster on this size rim? Car is a 95 Z28. I also have 4 17x11s if there is a better option for those.
Thanks! Rich |

Several endurance teams (limited to 180 or 200tw as well) have reported really good success with the new Nankang tire. The widest 18 at the moment is a 295 but I've tested a 285 and it is very wide for the size. I've not seen a 295 and PhilsTireService does not show measured specs. Like a rival, once warm it is quite sticky and it has a sidewall package that results in a good precise feeling (lots of 200tw tires are more "vague"). Not sure if any autocrossers have tested it yet, but it might be worth considering.
