Late model vettes have big brakes and can'nt run wheels smaller than 16" so tires must be 16" or larger also (16-17-18-19) most tire companies offer a very limited selection of racing tires in those wheel sizes.
I run Hoosier Slicks 16 X 28 X 10 which is a true 10" wide tire but may not qualify for your new class. My tires are usually allowed in the "true 10 wide" classes. Mickey thompson quit making the ET Street in a 10 wide 28" tall tire X 16 about 2 years ago (When they merged).
Hopefully the new class will accomodate the "Vette" tire sizes so we "Vette Guys" can compete if we choose.
