    Installing Wide Tires on a C8 Stingray

    I don't understand it either. Other than the wide front tires, 3000' DA and 93F. I'm running a good charge of Torco Accelerater. My last two corvettes ran a best times of 10.9 sec and 10.0 sec. I think it's losing it on the top end. I don't understand it with the mods I've done (previous posts)...

    Installing Wide Tires on a C8 Stingray

    That's fine. I respect you concern. I'm a bit care free and "think' I can Spam undesirables. I'm still learning the "Rules" of this CCF. Thanks.

    Installing Wide Tires on a C8 Stingray

    wigj: Nice to hear from you. Sounds like your hopping experience is about the same as mine. My car is slower than yours. I'm getting 12.0's. Part of it may be related to the tires. 285's on the front and 335's on the rears. I'm getting 1.84 sec to 1.89 sec 60' times and 1/8th time of...

    Installing Wide Tires on a C8 Stingray

    Unfortunately, NO. Mag Ride may have been on build constraint when it was assembled (the original title was dated in January 2021). I bought it as a "preowned" 2LT car with 4,000 miles in April this year. It had several extra options but no Mag Ride or NNP exhaust. My last 3 new car orders DID...

    Installing Wide Tires on a C8 Stingray

    Hi Matt, My dragstrip video isn't a YouTube video. It was taken on an iphone 15 Pro. I could probably get it into YouTube with a little instruction.

    Yes, I've had an email for almost 40 years. They removed my phone number from a previous post. I figured they would remove my email. Here it goes again: This site won't accept a *.mov file attachment.

    Installing Wide Tires on a C8 Stingray

    I have experienced some wheel hop on launch. (Not using Launch Control, Mine bogs with Launch Control and then takes off). My car is a 2021 Non Z51. Sometimes it hops. Sometimes it doesn't. I launch off idle because I don't want wind it up and dump the clutch. I've had 2 track days with 4...

    Installing Wide Tires on a C8 Stingray

    I agree with your comment regarding the front tires. I relied on a major, long time, Dealer (the expert) in this area and his opinion was the setup would ok for street driving and drag racing. Having done it, I'm going to use them up. Then I'll go back with probably a 245. I don't do any...

    Installing Wide Tires on a C8 Stingray

    My wheels are OEM stingray wheels. 8.5" x 19" front and 11" x 20" rear. Yes, I know they're not as wide as the recommended widths. Also, keep in mind these wheels are spaced out an additional 20mm. It works for me. Laws are different in OK. Remove the spacers, keep the 245's on the front and...
