Tire size suggestions and brand

I would strongly suggest you run Santhuff shocks on that, as the Corvette is known for violent wheelstands with big powr and good traction, due to the short wheelbase and good engine setback. You need the ultimate in front end control to prevent ugly things from happening. Specifically, you need to not have to "hit" the thing really hard to get it to hook and make the front end work. A lot of shocks have to be hit real hard to work, the Santhuffs do not, they work so smoothly that a 1.3 60' pass feels as soft as a 1.5 60' pass.
