Tires For My Camaro

Hey guys, this will be my first tire change coming up soon. I was wondering what are some good options? I have the pirelli's on now, but I know those will be expensive. So what are some good alternatives, or should i just get the same exact tires put on? Thanks.

You should ask in the tire section... more likely to get better responses there.

I bought the Atturo AZ800's for the rear of mine (Yeah, They are an SUV Tire) but at $148 each for 315/35/20's, I couldn't go wrong. Good Grip, Handle Well, Limited Road noise. A great alternative. I am very happy with them !!

Pirellis are not that expensive at Tirerack. They run just over $200.00 a tire.

Pirellis p-zeros in other sizes cost $300.00 or more per tire. I believe Pirelli is giving tire companies a break on the oem sizes for the Camaro.

I just put the Hankook v12s on... love em. They have a lot better grip than the stock pirellis. Bought them online, and had them shipped. Saved about 40 bucks a tire.

I can't find those in SS sizes. Just the fronts. Anyone know who carries 275/40/20 in the V12 Hankook?

These are now the tire to get, the reviews coming in are awesome and it is a 450+ wear rating and a Ultra high performance all season.
