Good news for 21" wheel owners - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Tire rack is now stocking a replacement for the hard to find 21" tires. Up to now you could only get Pirellis and they cost over $500 ea.

Now available are Hankook Ventus V12 evo2 tires. Check out this site.

What do you think of these?

WOW

Thats great news for us special edition cars with the 21`s.
recently purchased 20 inch rims because of the price of the 21 inch
tires. may rethink about putting those 20 on and keep my 21`s

I like my 21' wheels but, not the cost of replacement tires by Pirelli. This now gives a good option as these Hankook tires are competitively priced.

Anyone here have experience with these tires?

I've sold quite a lot of the Hankooks but that's partially because we're a Hankook distributor. We get better prices than Tire rack though just FYI, so whatever Hankook you want, let me know, just PM me.

For example, Tire Rack on that 275/30/21 you posted up has their prices set at $254 per tire, but I'm at $232.39. Tire rack isn't always the best option for tires

I did the same thing. Passed on a great deal for a set of 21 inch wheels I really wanted due to the cost of tires. I went with new 20 inch wheels..

I've seen a few other car manufactures add 21inch wheel options. This may be the reason for stocking up on tires!

This is good to know seeing how I just recently ordered her the 2015 Special Spring Edition (Green Flash) . I didn't even think of replacement tires being so scarce. Thanks for posting this information guys.
