Michelin's are very good. They are known to have very good wear and have performance similar to the Blizzak or Pirelli. I see you ordered all ready. Thanks! I appreciate your business.

Rudy, I have a 2010 1LT w/RS package and wanted to know what would be the best size/brand winter tires to run? Thanks.

Rudy, will Motegi MR126 fit on a 2014 2SS/RS convertible? If yes, what summer and winter tires will work. Thanks.

Yes they fit. Are they staggered or all the same width?

Ready to order MR126 in white 20" for my 2SS/RS vert with UHP A/S, & TPMS. Let's get 'em in stock. Lots of advertising for a product you don't have in stock.

Nothing for many months... safe to say Rudy isn't with them (or Camaro5) any longer?

I stopped reading around page 10

I am still around. This thread falls off in the summer months. Ready to pick it back up as fall is quickly approaching.

Are the Blizzaks or Pirellis any good for wet weather rather than snow. Pacific NW get's more sideways rain and standing water than it does snow drifts.

Any recommendations?

Blizzaks are the best wet weather tire you can buy. Just remember, they are designed to operate in below 45 degree temps. Go with the performance version rather than the snow and ice.

And to follow-up on post 526 above, I placed that order with Rudy and was very pleased with the completeness of TR's package. I got the tires pre-mounted and Road Force balanced with their own TPMS and the re-learn tool so that I could swap back and forth with complete independence from the tire shop. The GMaxs perform as advertised and the Motegis are great looking wheels. The only downside is that they are the toughest wheel I've ever seen to clean. The seven spoke Ys have numerous squared corners that are tough to get to. A set of Wheel Woolies has helped but it still takes a lot longer to clean than the OE five spokes. But, all-in-all, I couldn't be happier with TR's and Rudy's service on this order. Very complete. Perfect protective packaging. Even included custom chromed lugs and two special tools and allens for center caps. Highly recommended way to go.

Don't forget to re-torque!

I've got a 2014 Camaro 2SS. Love it. I'm looking for snowshoes for the winter.

I got a quote from a tire shop for Michelin 275/40R20XL 106H BSW. All four the same size.

I know Blizzak are the best. Are these Michelins any good?

Thanks in advance, and I apologize if someone else has asked about these and I've missed it.
