Default Tires for z06
I just bought a Z06 and will need new tires soon. What is the best bang for the buck?
thanks

I just replaced my F1's with Toyo Proxies. Handle great in the rain and on dry pavement. Best price I found for them was at West Coast Corvettes (www.westcoastcorvettes.com). They are a foum sponsor and so far, I have had great service. They have them for $790 plus shipping for the set in the Z06 sizes. They also have Kuhmo's for a little more.
