Corvette C7 Z06, a 19/20-inch staggered setup using Schmidt Drago wheels paired with Michelin summer tires is a high-performance configuration that matches the aggressive wide-body factory specifications.

Wheel & Tire Specifications

To maintain the factory handling and ensure proper clearance for the Z06’s large brakes, you will typically need the following dimensions:

• Front: 19×10″ ET40 (Tire: 285/30ZR19)

• Rear: 20×12″ ET57-59 (Tire: 335/25ZR20)

Recommended Setup

Schmidt Drago Wheels

The Schmidt Drago is a premium German wheel known for its DeepConcave design and lightweight construction. For the C7 Z06, the Drago offers:

• Big Brake Clearance: Specifically engineered to clear the Z06 and Z07-package Brembo calipers.

• Custom Finishes: Available in Satin Black, HighGloss Silver, and custom finishes to match your Corvette’s trim.

• Durability: High load rating suitable for high-speed track or spirited street use.

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S (Summer)

For the best street performance in summer conditions, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S is the industry standard.

• Grip & Control: Features “Dynamic Response” technology for precise steering.

• Wet/Dry Performance: Multicompound tread provides exceptional braking and cornering in both dry and rain conditions.

• Tread Life: Offers significantly better longevity compared to the more aggressive Pilot Sport Cup 2.

Alternative: Track-Focused Setup

If you plan on frequent track days, you might consider the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2. While it is a summer-only tire, it uses a stickier compound that provides higher peak grip at the expense of wet-weather safety and tread life.
