C6-Z06 345/30/19 Michelin PS2s

Has anyone run 345/30/19 Michelin PS2s on the rear of their Z06 on a road-course/track day on stock rims?? They are a little larger in diameter and width than the factory tires. Curious if there is any adverse effect on handling around the corners due to the difference in size.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You will be all set running 345s on the factory 19x12 wheels. You will actually probably notice that the car is a bit more responsive and more stable if you're still on the factory runflats.

The ride will also be a little more quiet as well. You're going to be about a 1/2" taller in overall diameter, but you should still be all set at the factory ride height.

Thanks - just want to make sure they don't have problems under hard corning. Everything I have read or heard suggest the Michelins are better than the GY run-flats.

Faaaar better. Goodyears suck serious ***. I'm still running Pilot Sports on my car, but I love the PS2s. They are the better all around tire, and blow pretty much every other tire in its class away.

The only downfall is the price, but IMO they are well worth it.
