I like the feel of the tires but I really haven't put them to the test. This weekend I'll put some miles on them.

I was going to purchase the Michelins but they are so popular and on a nation wide back so I choose another route.

I think you'll be very happy with your purchase, especially if you drive your C6 in rain/for trips. Only if you're making big power or when pushing your car really hard would you have benefited from PSS.

I second this- the DW wear fairly rapidly.

Yeah I'm definitely happy with my purchase already. I don't daily drive my Vette but plan to put some good hard miles on them this weekend.
