Spare tire delete?
SGC - Spare Tire Delete
Never heard of this option. Do they just supply car with no spare tire? do you get a credit, or what is the reason for deleting the spare tire? |

The other option is they supply the spare tire and you get the car from someone else !

Most likely the same reason it's deleted on the SS The spare doesn't fit over the brakes and a full size tire won't fit in the spare tire well in the trunk.

Are ZL1 Tires Run Flat?
I don't know much about tires. I know I usually would not drive anywhere without one. The last thing I want to do is leave my car stranded somewhere while I try to get a flat fixed somewhere, or try to locate a tire repair shop some Sunday afternoon.
I insist on insuring I will not be stranded. Any education on this appreciated. A pretty good idea for this thread by the way! An area not really covered yet. Thanks |

I took the tire and jack out and I've had AAA for 10 years. They will hook me up, I also have a friend who owns a cab service and I'll just call, have him or one of his guys bring me my tire.

Here is a link to possible wheel adaptor to allow smaller rims/donuts to fit over new calipers.... not sure! But worth checking

That is funny you mentioned that as my dealer was pointing out differences between a vette and a camaro...
One being you can run the vette on a flat tire for 60 miles or so... The camaro you cant...
