I was quite interested in the upgrade series on the "Pewter Rocket". Somehow I missed an article on how you put C6 Z06 size wheels/tires on the C5, and I can't find it in the Tech Section of your website (am I looking in the wrong place?) Anyway, my question is how did you manage to get the 325zr19 tires on the back without hanging out? Did you have to "tub" it?

No tubs were required. The tires fit--albeit barely--and we've noticed no fender rubbing since the installation.
If you use Goodyear EMTs, make sure you have them mounted at a shop that has experience with this application. The EMTs can be tricky to mount, mostly because of their wider-than-standard bead area.
The full article can be found in our June '06 issue.
Thanks for reading,
