    Re: What Sizes Does Kumho Need?

    For my C6 Z51.....here are the stock sizes, obviously something close to the OD with slightly larger cross section would be ideal!

    I think these sizes could be useful for other cars too as 18s / 19s are becoming more and more common place.

    For the me too portion:

     225/45/15 - Hoosier seems to be selling a bunch of these and even Hankook

    For the off the wall portion:

    A nice wide 13" ST tire so something other than an '89 Honda Civic might show up in ST.

    it may make more sense to focus more on delivering the old sizes rather than offering new sizes ... Devil

    Well, I wasn't buying the old sizes anyway...

    some people had no option but to buy Hoosiers instead, some aren't planning to switch back ....

    RtsLanE5:

    Im also In need of 245/40-17 or 255/40-17. Or ideally, a 255/35-17, although that probably wont ever exist.

    Ditto for me in DS, a 245/40/17, 255/35/17, or ideally a 265/35/17 would be great for E46 330's. The 275's *almost* fit, but are tall.

    The wear with the Hoosiers is awful, I'd love to move to the Kumhos but for the gearing difference.
