Default C7 tires!!

I have deposit on C7 hope to be getting fall 2013!!

I currently have 2008 Cpe, that I did BG delivery Feb 2008!!

Last week I put 4 Michelin Sport Pilot Plus ZP's on!!
If this is the ride I've been missing for the last 5 years!!
Smoother, quieter ,great handling !!!

I'm going to wait until I know what kind of tires are offered. If they do it like they did with the higher performance C6s, they'll offer 2 different types of tires.

Either way, I don't want run flats. I have AAA.

Goodyear has recieved so much negative press on this, and other, forums regarding the tires GM uses on the C6 that I feel GM has made the decision to go with Michelin's accross the board on all C7 models. At least I hope they have.

Run Flats are a given.
