Carlos has a pair of 275/19 Toyo R888. You should check with him to see how much tread they have left and how much he wants for them.

No flares, stock TAs, still going to fit 295s. I don't listen to the corvetteforum consensus.

I see no reason to get offset TAs, the frame and sway bar get in the way before the TAs do. Maybe if you want to run deep 15 or 16 inch wheels they would help.

I didn't relocate the parking brake cable either, just ziptied it to keep it off the tire.

Let me know how it goes. I saw a 69' at Bird's on Saturday with 295s and stock TAs and Flares. The tire was right on the TA just about and sticking out under the flare (would smash it under heavy travel and it wasn't lowered). But maybe you know some way to fit 10 pounds of crap in a 5 pound bag.

I know that I'm running 275s right now, and the tires are more than 10mm from the TAs/ frame/ sway bar.

If you look at my avatar you can see my rims stick out just a tad further than stock.

Related Q. How wide are your rims?
