Z04, that is barely a stretch.. michelin asks for a 9.5-11" rim for a 285/35 tire, so before you bash someone do your own research. Just because it "looks" a certain way doesn't mean its not the correct application..
OP, Your tire size is THE IDEAL size; keeping it close to OEM diameter while keeping your VDC happy. The fronts might be slightly stretched, but you'll be ok.. ruining your sidewalls blah blah blah is bs. Keep your tire PSI correct and you'll be fine...

without knowing the width of the wheels that is hard to say. but seeing how stretched the tires are they obviously are not the right size for the wheel. if you decide to do any heavy cornering you run the risk of eating your sidewall and having premature tire failure. and since there is no tread on the edges to give it any grip you run the risk of losing any traction you might have with cornering as well. just some things to think about
you wont eat the sidewall unless the rim is poking out and all the SLIGHTLY stretched tire is gonna do if at all is make it a tad easier to kick out.
if the tire bulged out...now I could see it eating the sidewalls.
go back to chevy school cna try to put some 17s on your z04.

J Tuned nice wheels, good choice keeping them. Can't wait to put on my own set of formula silver in a week.
Sorry but I'm a stickler for grammar. If I call someone a "hater", the word "hater" is clearly a noun and not an adjective. In fact I will be impressed if anyone can come up with a context to actually use "hater" as an adjective, because I am drawing a blank right now.
But anyway, the RE30's are really nice.

definition of illiterate : unable to read or write , making your post on illiteracy senseless. If i was illiterate i wouldn't be in this forum in the first place because i wouldn't understand anything. So, get your definitions straight before you make yourself look like a moron.
