Pilot PS2's
I'm new to the forum, long time Corvette addict.
Just took off the run flats on my 04 convertible and put Michlien Pilot PS2's on. Big differance in ride, noise and handles great.

We sell and deal with all brands of tires. Despite Michelin being French, they are the best overall tire manufacturer, hands down! A little more expensive, but you get what you pay for in this case!(still cheaper than GY runcraps)

As far as the pitting is concerned, my vette is about to hit 30k and the inner barrels look alot worse than that. There are wheel refinishing shops that can fix that. They'll polish and re-clearcoat the wheels and make them look like new. I live in NY and have heard there's a great place in Pennsylvania that can fix them for you and even get rid of curb rash. I think they are called Wheel collision center, I have their info bookmarked on my pc at work. I would suggest you wait a little while until it gets worse and then have the wheels refinished. That's what I'm gonna do eventually. If you need the info, pm me on monday.

But beware if you don't push your corvette a little (drive like a old lady) they might ware unevenly and get noisy. They have large tread blocks for grip, not comfort. They are a great tire too, I've used them before. They still arn't as good as ps2's though but they are around half the price.
