Real car people wouldn't even be talking about driving a SS in any type of bad weather

While I appreciate the suggestions of taking the bus, a cab, etc, this is a problem that can be solved by offering All season tires... An option that IS offered on their highest performance car, the Corvette. So eveyrone saying that it doesn't belong on this car bite your tongue.
And as for me not being a car guy, I've had more cars in the past 10 years than most have had in their lifetimes, I've built engines, swapped transmissions, and all kinds of other crap. Right now I'm in the middle of restoring a 69 Roadrunner, so trust me, I'm a car guy through and through. And the Camaro, gentlemen, while I love it, is just another car. As I said there are plenty of high performance all season tires, I know because I've owned many of them. Are they as good as Summer Tires? No. Are they more than good enough for any maneuvers you would be legally or even illegally pulling on the road? Absolutely. And they get though the rain/mud/snow fine. |
If the camaro is just another car then why own one? PERSONALLY I think your full of it

And what "all season" tires are offered on the Corvette? I've never seen this option. I'm not calling BS, just wondering. |

As for the Corvette I know from other users about it, I've never checked myself. I am pretty sure it comes with the Eagle F1 EMT tires which are available in an All Season type. |

I'm not going to play a pissing contest with you and start posting pictures and proof, believe me or not, I have no reason to lie, and in the end I really don't care. You're the one who chose to attack me in your first post ever here, nice way to say hi. |

I drove in over 10 inches of snow & my driveway has a high slant? had zip issues! I still plan to buy wheels & blizzaks for my Camaro unless I get great deal on 20 inch "AS"? I totally agree that GM should offer "All Season's" as option for $150.00 like on their G8? |
While I wouldn't ever need them, I think it just makes sense to offer them as an option. I mean, why not?

But the Eagle F1 EMT tire that comes on the Corvette is certainly a summer only tire. Check out the Goodyear website. I suppose I could see the purpose of offering an all-season tire on the SS, but I just couldn't justify the sacrifice in performance myself. |

The 4th gens have rotors that are just barely under 12" and a 16" wheel fits easily over them. In fact some have put 15" drag wheels over them. That's a difference of 3-4", an 18" wheel over a 14" rotor would be 4". |
Down here in Arkansas, we don't have enough of the slick stuff to worry about, but when we do I won't be driving the Camaro. She'll be in the garage;) Then out comes the bad@ass 6.0 Crew Cab 4x4!:cool:
