Eagle F1 SuperCar G2
The Eagle F1 SuperCar G2 is designed to be street-refined and track-capable by combining an aggressive appearance with awe-inspiring performance. Like all summer tires, it is not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.
The Eagle F1 SuperCar G: 2 features a race-inspired tread compound molded into a unique asymmetric and directional tread design that rewards the driver with a blend of dry road traction (from massive outboard shoulder tread blocks) combined with wet road confidence (provided by Eagle F1 GS-D3 inspired sweeping Aquachannel grooves on the inboard side).
The tire's structure includes twin, high-tensile steel belts reinforced with spirally wound nylon that distribute the vehicle's load across the tire's footprint to provide high-speed durability and uniform ride qualities. Internal construction enhances steering precision and high-speed stability. Exterior sidewall rim flange protectors help guard wheels from curb damage.
pricing:
P275/35R18 $443.00 ea.
P325/30R19 $506.00 ea.
availability:
2-3 weeks

No offense, Luke. I know you did not decide on those sizes. But those sizes are crap. Most C5 Corvettes have 295/35/18 or 305/35/18 rears.
That is why I just funneled $500 away from Goodyear and to NITTO for my tire needs.
Are you marketing to the Solstice community? Maybe they can use a skinny 275 rear?

With those prices, I see why they are going for the newer C6 owners. Are the C5 owners now looking for either a simple street tire and a more dedicated track tire for us track groupies? Luke, what is your experience on the buying habits of us C5 guys?
