Unless you want to run Hoosier "race tires", you're stuck with runflats or going to a different size on the rear. Most guys go to a 345/30. Michelin PS2s and Nitto Invos are the most popular.

I have the new Bridgestone Pole Position run flats in Z06 sizes. In my opinion they are much better than the Good Years. Quiet, handling,higher tread wear and even a little cheaper.

Hey, thanks - maybe I'll do these - how much quieter? - is the difference dramatic? - what I hate about the Goodyear's is that any imperfection in the road is like hitting a steal to a rock - I don't want such a rough ride
