From what I've seen, most everyone here uses the BFG or Continental. Not many choices out there for these wheels. I have the BFG's and I like them. I don't use the stereo cause I like every sound that come from the car but I don't think there noisy till you start pushing in turns.

Pretty hard to beat the BFG. Both price and performance it is a great tire. Problem is finding it. They only build them at certain times of the year and they go quick.

It is hard to beat the BFG for an overall tire. I’ve had them on my FBO and cammed 5th Gen SS and on my current ZL1. As with any performance style tire traction under power during this time of year is almost never present, but they ride, perform, and look great for the $

I would install the Michelin Pilot Super Sport or the Cooper Zeon RS3-S tires for sure they are excellent quality tires that will work well on your Camaro.

I have the BFG Comp2's. They are not noisy and handle/grip very well.

They wear well to.

Firehawks if you want a summer a type tire... BFGs for all around, they are not noisy.

I have from day one run a separate set of rims with Michelin AS/3's in a square set up. Typical Michelin comfort and quiet. Hook up better than F1's out of the hole, and don't splatter the side of the car with rocks.
