What is the overall best combo??
I was just about to ask this question myself. I am doing a '68 Camaro and I have been really weighing the pros & cons of mini-tubbing or not and if so what size is right for me.
Here's my dilemma.... I really don't want to have the biggest tire just for looks... I want big tires to make a big difference if I'm gonna spend big $$ for them. A close friend of mine works for Kumho's Motorsports support/R&D and he told me that the race teams don't really like to even venture into wheels bigger than 17".
He also reminded me that if I stayed with wheels and tires from say a Z06 I would probably be able get replacements just about anywhere in the US. To me that just makes common sense....
I just think that have a big tire for looks is not enough..... don't get me wrong it LOOKS WICKED, but they don't necessarily perform that much better if at all than say a Z06 295/35/18 rear.
