Ive been asking but no one answers.

Tran says 10" up front and 11" out back. Not sure what the 3 digit numbers for those would be, but the fatter the better, IMO.

I think the rear-view of these cars looks real mean with wider tires

I don't think it's just you. Saying that, would be deminishing all the hard work many of those cars have been through. I'm sure many of those cars are going to be fast, as they should, but this nameplate is special to more than a few people.

To each his/her own

Well - 10s could easily hold up from 275 - 305 and 11s from probably 295 to 315s. Looking back at old ZR1 wheels and tires (C4), fronts were 9.5 and held 275mm tires and the rears were 11s holding 315s. I believe Z06s are running 12s/325s and ZR1s like 13s/335s.

I'm just hoping we get some PS2s on Z28 (okay - and at least some 305s )

Agreed 305's would be the minimum IMO. The CTS-V's come with 285's though. So does the GT500.

On my Z28 (God willing ) I'd like to see 285+ in front and 315+ out back. . Thats just the way I like it.

IMVHO - I agree that the fatter tires make the rear look better. I believe the rear angle is the worst angle of the car, but wider tires, to me, help with proportion. The bigger the better

Agree. Hope the final model looks close to the newest Bumblebee hood, etc.
