It's about that time for tires. Currently on 335 MPSS run flats. Question:

I daily drive my Z06. Sometimes take it to the 1/4 mile but not often. Maybe once or twice a month. What would be the best tire for the stock 20" wheel for street and light drag use? MPSS? PS4S? Other options for the 20?" I may end up buying replica 19" wheels but trying to avoid that right now.

So many discussions on this you will get a lot of useful info doing a Search. If you don't want to search I'll summarize the hundreds of threads discussing your topic ad nauseam.

The best for your or any usage other than a 100% track car are the OEM MPSS ZP tires.

Yes I have searched. A lot of the posts are old, and wasn't sure if any newer tires have come out since then for the 20"

IMHO nothing better from a performance perspective. The MPSS ZP were designed specifically for the C7Z, are still the OEM tire and are simply amazing.
