Need Everyday Tires for 2013 ZL1...

Guys,

I'm still on the original tires, car only has 20,000 miles on it, but will be driving it full time now from late March till late fall. What do you guys recommend? Are the original OEM tires still available? Or should I just get some all-around tires?

Thanks!

Gonna be lots of suggestions and none are wrong. I still have pirelli p zero on mine and really like them. Thinking of maybe trying toyo r888 next time around but heard they are only good for 10k miles.

I can’t get more then 10,000 miles on G-Max (rears) but I really like them for the price and rough WI back roads!

I meant to say BFG G-Force....sorry

My best suggestion...do what most of us learned to do. Go to the various tire web sites and explore. They will have many choices with ratings on dry/wet/cornering, etc.
Depending on your budget.....you cant go wrong with either Continental or Michelin all season.
Good luck.

I put BFG's high performance all season tires on my ZL1 rims.

Nice price for a good tire.

The R888's are not DOT street approved I think.

Yea, I think I read that the 888r's are for "track use" only. And for only 6k miles or so? Too much money, unless you need them for comp racing.

The Goodyear G2's are discountinued from what I was told by a Goodyear rep. I had a extra set of 305/35/20's for sale but are now keeping them. I was able to locate a set of front left and right 100Y 285/35/20's and have those on order and they should be here next week.
