Default Tires

Hey guys I have a question about tires. I bought a used 2011 c6 and it has the original Goodyear run flats. The place I bought it changed out the wheels because I wanted the factory 5 spoke chrome. The back tires I have look brand new but the fronts are really bad shape. My question is do I have to replace the front tires with run flats or if I dont I would like to run goodyear's on the front so they will almost match the rear. What is the best goodyear tire to run on the front. Thanks for the help.

If I understand your question correctly, you have the original 2011 tires, that you switched to different rims. Is this correct? If so, you have tires going on 8 years old. They ALL need to be replaced. The only question is if you want RFs or non-RFs. If you want the security of RFs, go with Michelins, IMHO.

Run flats will make your car corner like its on rails. They are louder, & most shops won’t plug them. Im looking to replace my C7 tires.
