What tires . So little choices ?
So I will need tires by September.. I don't want the oem good year supercars. An don't wanna spend a ton. For Michelin super sports.
I daily drive my ZL1. And in TN. In the fall temps can start at 30 and be 70 mid day. And oem tires can't drive under 40f. I wanted the bf goodrich GForce. But the rears are not instock anywere. So then I was gonna do the nitto nt555 g2. They have rears. But don't make a 285/35/20 front. Options.? I'd like to stay under a grand. .. |

I have searched . And even nittos main website. Does not list a 285/35/20. They list a 40 and a 30. But not a 35. I could be wrong.

I know everyone has different opinions based on where they live. Being in Florida I plan on going with Conti Extreme Sport on both cars. The SS will be done first, followed by the ZL1.

Check into the Continental ExtremeContact Sport. They're Conti's answer to the Pilot SuperSport.
