I have a 99 Corvette with 18X10.5 front and 18X12 rear wheels, I am looking for tires that have at least 40 aspect ratio front, rears accordingly. The stock tire size has a 1" front to rear diameter differential that I *ssume I have to keep for the ABS reasons. I can be somewhat flexible on diameter as I can reprogram the computer to keep the speedo correct. Can you reccommend a brand and sizes that are available? they dont have to be EMT's either. I want something that works reasonably well in rain also.
      thanks

Well, I'd need to know your tire sizes, I'm showing a staggered fitment for those Vettes with 17's in the front and 18's in the rear.  As far as Brand recommendations go, it's pretty hard to go wrong with a Michelin.  They're pricey, but hey so was the car and if you want to get the performance you paid for, you're going to have to pay for it on the tires too.
