now that i see these prices



im browsing like discount tire website and tire rack, ect
i think i want to go with all-season tires this time and there is only like 1 choice per place that has matching front and rear because of the different sizes

for example i seen a nice kuhmo all-season for a reasonable price but they only had it for the front but not the rear

You don't have to go with the 275 rears..you have a little bit of options..285-295 are also options on our 9" rear rim..

Look at tire rack. They are a C5 sponser. Should be able to get all 4 for about $900 (p-zeros). Plus cost to get local shop to install. Will be additional cost if you get new tpms.

Look at Continentals for all weather replacements.Good tire and half the price of p-zeros. since you already do everything at the dealer you might as well spring for the $400 service there.

I got the 30,000 mile check up for 300 hundred if I remember right. Maybe cheaper because I had a coupon, but definitely not more than 300. Get a good dealer to do it. They do lots of stuff and they really do clean the engine out. I recommend it.

And about the tires... honestly I would just buy a set of takeoffs on ebay or craigslist. They go for 1000 or so. Sell your wheels for 400 to 500 and you got a new set of wheels and tires for 500-600.. which is the lowest you would pay for a new set of tires anyways! That's what I did!

looking at tires at discount tire and the rears for some brands are cheaper than the fronts, doesn't that seem weird?

Tirerack isn't really any cheaper.

All four P-Zeros cost $1,000 plus $100 shipping. Time you get them balenced and pay hazard removal fee from the shop you're still looking at $1,200 no matter what way you go.

Look up General G-Max. They are among the BEST high performance all seasons you can buy and are highly recommended here on Camaro 5 and from tire rack for the camaro. For all four tires will run you about $700 plus shipping.

I reccomend the Continental all seasons.

I have the Yokohamas and they were a mistake, car drives like a truck with them on. Can't wait till they wear out.

As for the Dealer suggested Maintenance, I'd suggest to read your Owner's manual and see what it tells you at that milage. Ya gotta watch dealers.
seriously? I have a 1LT/RS.... All RS V6's come with the P-Zeros.... just because it's a V6 doesn't mean it's a base model

OP I would also recommend the General G-Max; that's what I'll be going with when I swap my tires out in a few months!

Look PIPE...now you've gone and pissed off the V6'ers...lol



V6'ers...i don't believe he meant to imply anything about your cars, perhaps it was a lack of backround knowledge, give the man a break.
