Looking for a Second Set of Tires - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

ZapperZ · 07-26-2017, 12:20 PM

Presently using Nitto NT01's for track use but looking for another set of tires for street use and also be a good setup for cooler track days or rain.
Sticky R tires are a pain for me for street use as I have a gravel driveway.
Presently I unload the Z directly into my shop after an HPDE weekend,
but don't have street tires to change into
I did have a set of RS-3'S but they're done

maybe try the new Goodyears from the ZL1 1LE?

ZapperZ · 07-26-2017, 03:32 PM

OK
How about an all around set of tires that could be used on street and track?
That might make it a lot easier

Checked TireRack & Discount Tire and I believe they're not made in my size

Re71r. 200tw tire that matches nt01 performance. It understeers more but matches laptime. There's a good comparison out there with a m3 on nt01s and the re71r

Pirelli PZero. Great street tires. Work great even down to 25F-30F. Zero tramlining, quiet, etc.

I disagree, respectively. They do actually tram line and also they are bad in the rain. I've had 2 sets on 2 different vehicles. They were so bad on my SRT Jeep that I replaced them immediately and couldn't sell $2400 worth of tires for $300
They do grip well in dry though good grip. But they actually aren't supposed to be driven in temps below 40 I think. Can crack

What about bfgoodrich g-force comp 2? Great grip. Great in rain. Not too pricey

I have these in the rear and pzeros in the front...all brand new. I really dislike the pzeros

Bridgestone Potenza S-04. Good combination of street and performance. Runs well on the street in dry and wet. Not as sticky as the RE-71R or RE-11, but better TWI (280).

I just ordered some Mich PSS from Tire Rack. 325/30 and 305/30's. Ran about $1100 shipped to my installer. Drove it home yesterday and they feel so much better on the street compared to the factory Pirelli's. It has also been raining here the last 4 days so today was the first day I got to enjoy the tires on dry ground. 10/10

ZapperZ · 07-27-2017, 03:09 PM

Maybe PSC2 ?
Which one?
98Y or 102Y(NO) ?

Whatever tire you go with, run the same size as factory on front and rear.
