its unfortunte gm put such a unpractical tire on these cars. they should have stuck with the michellins.


I don't mean to flame you - but unless you are a tire engineer, please be careful of making proclamations.

Why would we "stick (sp) with the michelins" on a car with the capabilities that the ZL1 has to offer?

Further -- you may find that the "Michelins" (20 inch tires) aren't the best tire at zero degrees F. -- they're performance tires.

All should be fine in terms of shipping.
