    Tire Comparison-GY GS-D3s vs TOyo Proxes T1-Rs

    Geesh, :W I know there have been numerous posts on tires but I have narrowed to two types of non-runflat tires. They both have similar threads and stats. I have replaced GY EMTs with the GS-D3s on an earlier C5 I owned and was very happy with them. Now Toyo comes out with the Proxes T1-R...

    Has anyone tried Nitto 555 tires on a C5?

    I have had the Goodyear GS-D3s and found them to be quiet, extremely great handling in wet or dry and they last. I looked at comparisons and had heard some talk about both the BF Goodrich g-force KDWs and KDW2s but when I read reviews and looked at the ratings in wet and dry I made my decision...

    Need Tire Opinions

    need tires This is very good advice. It is exactly what I did when I chose the GY GS D3s and it is what I am doing now since it has been a while and this is another car. I suspect I will chose the same tires but it doesn't hurt to look and looking doesn't cost anything. I also checked CF and...

    Need Tire Opinions

    I thought the GS D3s were much better than the Kumho tires I had; Kumhos were noisier to me. Bill

    Tires

    When I replaced the GY EMTs on my 98 I went to the non run flat GS-D3s; I really liked them-quieter and hugged the road better in my opinion then the stock tire. I recommended them to a friend who is a very picky car owner. He put them on his 2002 and told me later that everything I said about...

    Stereo speaker evaluation and access

    Vetteforfun, first like your choice in cars. Mine is a 99 Magnetic Red coupe also with 2001 wheels (I haven't upgraded my avatar it still shows the 98). I get the distortion when I play the cassette as well. I have switched channels and types of music only to hear it the same way. I noticed...

    Stereo speaker evaluation and access

    I've recently experienced distortion in my system. I thought it was just the station I was listening to at first but it happens all the time. The distortion seems to be coming out of both front and rear speakers. I don't know if it is my system or just speakers. I thought it funny that it...

    tire pressure sensors

    Thanks, Eric and Bob. I was thinking the only change was the shape so it would fit the 2001-2002 wheel; did not know they were not compatible for programming with my 99 computer. Bill

    tire pressure sensors

    I'm putting 2001-2002 wheels on my 1999 C5 coupe. When I go to set them with my computer will the sensors set up or do I need to replace those tps with my 99 tps? Thanks, Bill

    Power Seat Problem

    Randomus/All-this is a help. I had not seen this section when I first posted in general discussion. I have been having problems with my bolsters and lumbar also. I'll check this out on my seat; fuses looked good and the passenger seat bolsters/lumbar work. I thought I heard a faint noise at...

    1978 vette: what is it?

    The 77 is considered the last of the Stingray models even without the Stingray badging. Primarily because of design. The body design was no different then 1968 through to include 1977. 1978 through and to include 1982 were not Stingray since the body style changed. Once in a while someone will...

    Edelbrock Performer RPM Cam

    I think it depends on which Flowmaster 40s one has. I need to take my car by the shop because I think mine are 40 high performance which could be why they are so loud. Of allteh Flow 40s I have heard before none were as loud as these on my car. Bill

    Powder coating would be nice for all the black painted areas; polishing the rims would also look good with the powder coating. Bill

    Power window troubleshoot

    Glad everything got worked out; one thing many people don't do is to clean and grease all the runners. Never hurts to take the door panels off, clean the runners, use contact cleaner on the electrical points and use a little light coat of lithium grease on the runners and in some places a...
