Ok guys, so I have a little issue..... I ordered some mickeys T 305."45".18 but instead got 305."35".18 should I be worry about fitment or issue running this tire? I wanted 305.45.18 since that's what everybody is using on the corvette rims. I might be wrong, but every post I seen that's what people,seem to like.

Anyone else running 305.35 drag radials?

Yea man, that's a problem. 305/35-18's are only a 26.5" tire. If you're running the stock 20's up front your ABS is gonna freak the hell out.

Just make sure you hold down the TC button and turn everything off or else the car will freak out and think you are spinning and kick in the nannies on you to stop the car. Running 315/35/18's now only bc I got them off a guy with a Vette. I WILL be putting on 305/45/18 next season. The tires I got were almost new on the rims so I plan to abuse the mess out of them and run them down this year at least.

Not great for driving distances on but isnt doing damage. Better to swap them out when you get to the track though.
