so whos gonna be rocking it? if i didn't get such a good deal on my wheels i would have gone with a 21" rear to use it. funny thing is, it is cheaper than a good deal of 19" and 20" tires!!

That's a big one, 15.4" section width. I wonder if the sidewall would look to small
Does a late model vehicle come with that size tire?

No manufacturer has those wheels OEM. They don't look a true 375mm by this picture. But they are cheaper than PS2 for some reason. Pirelli USA does not recommend going wider than 13" (12.0-13.0 only). If they were true 375's, you should be able to run a 14.5" wheel. It looks like a 345mm to me
Kumho makes that size and they would fit a 14.5" wheel - and they're even cheaper than Pirelli's

Wouldn't you have to run a monster front tire/wheel combo (maybe 295+?) to have a decent balance and turn well?

Lots of vettes run 13" wheels in the rear without a tub, but 14"-14.5" will stick out unless your run an aftermarket widebody kit that some people sell

I was gonna run their 405/25/24 tire on my truck with a 24x14 wheel. But I thought about it really hard and couldnt justify spending more money on 2 wheels and 2 tires, then I did the truck! Changed my mind at the last second while the phone was ringing to order them.

WAY too big...not the width, but the wheel diameter and tire profile...even for the Z06.

Not to be a ****, but the 20 means 20% of the section width. That is 75 mm or 2.95" .....still really short.
Wow cant say d!ck....what if its your name......??

thanks for clearing that up. i was under the impression that the second number was millimeters. either way, its still ridiculously thin.

With a tire that large, there is no doubt that the application must be unique. Would love to see how that tire handles on the track!
