Has anyone tried these tires yet ?

I believe these are the tires I had on my C5.
Looks like they've just come out with sizes for the C6.

I loved them on my C5.
And, would definitely consider them when my current set need replacing.

I had the C5 versions and they were amazing compared to the Goodyears. quiet, much better in wet weather, don't wear out so fast (like the Goodyears). And they look really tough.

Had them on the C5 I traded for my C6. Those tires are good for 30k to 40k miles with normal driving. Are they on the market for C6s yet?

No, thanks for the heads up. I normally ignore tire threads but I have been waiting for these; I ordered a set today. Should have them in a week or so.

They had ZPs for C5s? When did that start, does anyone remember? I know the ZPs for C6s just started, I think, this year.....

I just got a set of Michelin PS ZPs in April-- courtesy of GEICO (dump truck ran me into a concrete highway barrier, messed up 3 of the wheels and tires, and some other stuff...). Passed on Goodyears, bought PS ZPs. I had to put up some $$, because the total for 4 was greater than the price of 4 orig spec Goodyears

Ride is incredibly quieter. People who ride with me -- and who have ridden in the car since new -- tell me it sounds like a different car. I notice no difference in dry or wet handling --and we have had tons of rain in So Fla over the last few weeks. I don't track, so I can't give any feedback on other than everyday handling.

I have a "stock" C6 with the magnetic shock thingies.

I had them on my 04 in 2006. The C6 version is a much better looking tire IMO. The C5 ZPs rode nice, but they weren't a very attractive tire.

Technical term, I'm guessing?

They looked like an SUV tire, but they were a BIG improvement over the OEMs for the C5. I will most likely buy a set when my Supercar EMTs wear out. Do you have them on your C6? If so, do you have any pics? (or anyone else for that matter)

I put Firestones RFs on the C6. Here's a pic of them on my C5.

No. That is the PS2 ZP (summer max performance). The tire under discussion is the A/S (all-season) ZP

Chemdawg99

I'm tracking what they look like on a C5. I had them on the C5 I recently traded away for my C6 (see post #4). I was wanting to see a set on a C6. Thanks for posting that up though

Edit: the second pic helps. Tire Rack has the one for the C5 depicted (I think)

This tire just took the lead for me when my OEM GY's wear out. Yes it is an all-season but snow can pop up any time when you are at 7k-12k feet. Heck, I've seen it snow in Salt Lake City in June and Sept before. Plus the regular ZP is not supposed to be good below 40 degrees which is 9 months of the year here.
