Tire time
Has anyone posted a comparison of all runflat tires pro's and con's? I went to tire rack and fond some info, but really wanted input from vette owners for wet/dry performance etc.

In my 5 years on the forum there have probably been 100-150,probably a light estimate, postings about tires.It depends on what YOU want. R/F or no, handling, quiet, grip, tracking or no, dragging or no, autocross or no, daily driver? Is price a consideration, is I,ve got (blamk) prestige tires on my car. There is no single good answer.It,s like answering the question your wife asks,Does this dress make me look fat? Choose carefully. I guess the consensus is that the GY OEM tires have not performed to expectations and the quicker you changed the better you liked it. Good hunting and decision making.

I bought the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP. I have been very happy with them.
My car is a daily driver. I have the base suspension. I don't take it to the track. The winter temperature in the Bay Area can get into the 30's at night, and it rains.
