If you've never had quality high performance tires on your Corvette, you have no idea what you're missing.
Ride quality and even low speed handling are
measurably improved . Until you have tried it, you really have no idea, NO OFFENSE INTENDED.
IMHO, it was the best thing I ever did with my 2000 C5 and will do the same when it is time with my C6.

Thanks for sharing as it is nice to know the runflats do perform as expected.
