I'm still contemplating my Camaro purchase and one thing I am having to consider is the TIRES. I live in the Tacoma/Olympia area and I'd guess we have 40's and below temps at least half the time during Winter. And it's wet a little bit, too.

I was going to order the RS package, but it comes with the 20" Summer PZero tires that are NOT recommended for 40's and below temp. So that means different tires (maybe even wheels) for 3 months or so a year. Not so worried about our light, infrequent snowfall (will drive the Explorer), but the temps! Right now there are not many 20" All Season or Snow tires.

So I am thinking that here, it makes more sense to drop the RS (bye, bye HID lights) and keep the 19" wheels. My understanding is that comes with PZero All Season tires instead.

Any comments or thoughts? Thanks!
