Hey thanks. I wonder what the price will be and what the wear factor will be with them. For all we know they could be toast at 10k miles like the Grand Sport Goodyears. It will be interesting following the C7 section once some of those cars get some miles on them.

I'm more worried that since they are made for the base Stingray; they will be quiet and soft riding, give good fuel economy, and last a long time. But not any grippier than the current PS2 runflats.
After all, these will be base tires on the base car.
We should know within a year!
