Hi Guys,
I purchased this C7 in 2017 with 8K miles on it. I flew from NY to Kentucky to pick up and drive back. When I got into the car it was very hard to move the shifter to the right and push up into 7th. Also xtremely hard putting moving to the right to get into reverse. Although very hard...
Thank you. Very good advice. Wish I read it before getting the tires mounted. I would have made sure of all your points. The place I went to was a well known speed shop off of Vets hwy near airport. I did not see them do it but I hope they did a good job. No problems other then they left the...
Thanks John. I called tirerack and informed them of the situation. They will be calling the guys who said he would not install because of the aluminum alloy rimms. Tirerack will call me back with a new installer.

Any thoghts on getting different rims so i can put snows on? what size rims?
I plan on driving in snow that has already been plowed or packed. Anything more then that I will avoid.
There are tire socks that I am planning to get either way. But they can not be driven on pavement. In NY you could have one block snow and another no snow so I will put socks in trunk for...
Please don't hate me but I will be driving my 94 in light ny snow this year.
Right now i have the original tires on the car. FRONT 255/45/17 and REAR

$500 snows for the back are no longer available this year. Not
