Goodyear on 11830 San Jose Blvd (904) 262-0090


I have them drop my camber down to near 0 with very little toe. I do a lot of highway traveling and I want to make the tires last rather than be aggressive for turning.

They've been my guys for my previous Camaros and my current Vette.

HI Elmer - You dont rub the bottom going up that steep incline? That was one of my worries about going there. It's actually only 10 minutes from my house - so convenient for sure - but if your Vette goes in there mine should be able to make it up there too!

Nope, never scraped. I'm stock height. Also I can make it up with my splitter. I also removed the outside rubber wings under the car and only have the center unit for cooling the engine. The outside pieces are for performance on the high end with our cars. I rarely rub on anything with the outside pieces removed.

Very nice! That's the only concern I had was the steep incline. Thanks Elmer!
