Trust Tire Rack's own tests better than opinions submitted by the majority of their customers.

As long as you keep the tires properly inflated and the car in proper alignment, you ought to be getting at least 12,000 miles per 100 treadwear from brand new to the wear bars.

Know that proper inflation and proper alignment FOR YOU, INDIVIDUALLY may not match Chevy's suggested/recommended numbers.

The easy recommendation is Michelin's Pilot All-Season Plus.

Drive it like you stole it with Michelin Pilot Super Sports, but not to far as you may experiance tread loss...
