The 1982 Collector Edition came with P255/60 – R15 Goodyear Eagle GT tires when new.



These tires are once again available from Kelsey Tire. Not inexpensive, but little is for these cars today.

Good luck... GUSTO

Is that $370 for all 4 tires or just 1 tire?

They are $370.00 each. Same price from Corvette America and Mid America.


Quite a rip-off I would say. My local dealer normally gives me a big discount on tires, but not on these. I'd like to have them for authenticity, but Sheesh.....

Yes, they are $370 each... But it could be worse, you could own a C6 or a C7...


Good luck... GUSTO

Cooper RWL.
At $110 each and I have been to San Diego twice in the 4 years they have been on.
That's a good value and when clean they look good.
