My 2002 ZO6 has the stock factory tires still in place. There is still legal tread, but they just don't seem to grip like they used to. They seem a bit 'greasy'.

What have other people done when replacing their tires? Stock? Michelin? Kumo? etc.

What is your experience, and what are your opinions?

For street use, the best choice is the F1 Supercars which came on the car. They are *the* best ultra-performance street tire for that application. While you're at it, update to the 04 shocks. You'll notice a ride improvement.

If you do track day types of things or auto-X and you don't drive much on the street, or you do drive on the street but swap tires at the track, then some of the really sticky, "DOT race tires), ie: Kumho Victoracer, Hossier, etc might be a better choice.
