I'm ordering mine today, have not heard any Corvette specific feedback, but feedback on some other forums seems fairly positive. I'm getting mine (Z06 sizes as well) for $859 out the door, so the price is certainly attractive

70l46 did you get yours mounted and balanced for that price? I picked mine up at tiredealsforless.com for $765.12 shipped. They had the best prices that I have seen.

I have had mine for over 1,000 miles now, and love them. I think you will be satisfied. I love the tread pattern on the T1R's.

Yep, $859 is mounted/balanced and 6% Michigan sales tax. Got them from Tireman, a Ohio/Michigan tire retailer & service center.
