I have not tried them out in the rain yet, it does seem that I get caught out in the rain on my way home from cars shows this year, so that should happen soon (very rainy in Ohio this summer). Perhaps the Goodyears are a better track tire, but my concern is more straight line stop light launch traction, 1-2 transition (yes, I am 60 yo and still do stop light/stop sign burnouts, it is my only pleasure!) and rain. What is your experience with your tires? I had the original size tires installed, I didn't go 1 size bigger (wider) in the rear as many people do. Didn't want to take a chance with traction control woes etc.

That's real interesting. Are these the same tire as the BFGoodrich G-Force Comp 2 A/S?

I would presume so. I got those tires for my 2013 SS 1LE. They're a fantastic daily alternative to the Eagles; great in the rain, but on a 1LE they broke loose all the time. I guess that's because of the torquey nature of the 1LE?
Now I've got a ZL1 and am really interested to see how those work out.
