Sticky tires were the best mod I ever made on my C5 (or any sports car). A few hundred extra dollars up front will yield a much more enjoyable driving experience over the next few years. With cheap tires, the gas pedal is useless.
Cool i seen ebay has them for 266$-290$ for a pair of the lionheart 285/35/18s i may see if they have the lexani uhp 207 285/35/18s are 150$ each from walmart.com or 290$ on ebay for the set theyd match the new 245/40/18 lexanis i have on the front.
Nice i too use 275/40/18 on the original 18x9.5 speedlines hankook ventus 12 evo 2 which run 440$ a pair on ebay. I found a pair for 80$ 3/4 tread left nearly new at a local tire shop included mounting and balancing. They worked great till i got it dynotuned would get sideways pretty easy i have a set of c7 z06 18x10.5 and 8.5 upfront with 245/40/18 lexani uhp 207 that were 90$ from walmart. Theyre similar to lionhart tires. Cant really see this picture was in the dark the rear hankook ventus 12 evo 2 275/40/18s and the c7 z06 fronts are lexani 90$ 245/40/18s. They have the lexani 285/35/18 new for 150$ im thinking of getting those once the 295/35/18 bridgestone potenzas on the 18x10.5 wheels are done.
These lexani uhp 207s are pretty good they make them in smaller sizes and i think have the same design as the lionhart around the same price. Bought some 245/40/18s for 90$ each from walmart they have a 285/35/18 im thinking of getting for the rear for 150$ each when the 295/35/18 bridgestones wear out on the 18x10.5 wheels. They made the car run so much smoother. Thinking of getting a 245/45/17 set for the original 17x8.5 speedline wheels. The hankooks ventus 12 evo 2 are nice tires but expensive at 440$ a pair for the rear set. I cant get any close up pics of them as theyre stored in the garage corner. Someone told me 18s allowed for c6 z06 brake upgrade i think but either way nice affordable tires. Tire rack has 125$ riken raptors which comes with free road and hazard protection for 2 years vs buying the road hazard protection from discount tire which gets pretty expensive.
