Question: Tires

[Bob 97]

Any suggestions for new tires for my 1997?
Don't want run flats!

What kind of driving do you do?

Here's the link to the tire discussion from the C5-ZO6 side of things...5 pages worth. I've read them all several times. Really super good info in there.

Just cruising and little trips and sometimes a lead foot.
No racing.
Thanks for asking

I have always had the best luck concerning ride quality, noise, and handling with either Michelin or Yokohama. Those are the two brands that I purchase now when I need tires, they are not the cheapest out there but they are consistently quality products. Good luck with your choice.

My C5 and current C6 have /had Michelin All Season .I drive during sub zero temps ,rain ,snow ,ice and on rare occasions sunny top down days .

If you want a really good all-around tire that will almost hang with Michelins for about half the cost, try BFG g-Force Sport Comp-2s. They are about $720 on line, slightly more locally.
