Default Tire question

Need to put new meats on the beast... Have plenty of info on the Goodyears etc, but was wondering if any of you guys were running the BFGoodrich G-Forces. Likes, Dislikes, Wear, Traction? Whats the scoop on these?

Mark

The only Goodyear tire for your C4 that is worth a darn is the Eagle F1 Supercar which should be available in C4 sizes. It runs the same tread compound as the Corvette Z06 Eagle F1 Supercar.

Elsewise, there are some very nice Kumho Ecsta MX, BF Goodrich g-force KD (likely your best choice), Michelin Pilot, Bridgestone Potenza S03, etc.
