The Pirelli PZero tires that came on the SS seem to be very good, but with the way many of us drive we will be due for a new set before too long. Does anyone know what they will buy when the time comes? Although I like the Pirelli tires, I don't think I want to spend that much money on my next set. I'm thinking Kumho Ecsta SPT.

 

bridgestone potenzas 950 225/40/18 or 235 40 19
bridgestone wideoval s03 21545 18
or if i can still get some discount on BFS scorcher k01 215/45/18 or 225/40/18
it is an 18x7 wheel so i dunno how wide will fit with the strut and fenderwell rubbage? Any one test fit a 19 or 20 yet?

 

the pirrelis are really badass tho, hmm oem replacement still a possability
what about theGM warranties with diff size low profile tires on it>?

 

I'm thinking of replacing the Pirelli P6's with Goodyear Tripletreds.

 

What do you guys think about Toyo's? I can get any set of them for virtually nothing.

 

I'd be all over some Toyos if I could get them cheap... why do you get a discount?

 

bf goodridge g-force drag radials lol no some g-force sports or kdw's definatly excellent dry traction with kdw's and good wet traction, sports are more balanced.

 

damn those look nice!

 

My brother owns a tire distribution center , he deals mainly in Toyo and is very good friends with their rep. So when he buys them for himself or me he gets them for I'd say atleast over 50% off. A couple years ago when I had my ZR-2 S-10 I cut a couple tree stumps out for him and he gave me a bad a$$ set of Toyo off road tires and they were kick ass. I just was not sure about their street tires.

 

When I get my Cobalt next week, I'll be looking at replacing the Pirelli's with either Nitto NeoGen 2 or Falken Azenis. These are both great tires and are worth the money.

 

All I've done so far is a quick search on tirerack.com and there are only 5 different sets of tires that came up that could fit the stock SS wheels. I'm torn between the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A and the Bridgestone Potenza S-02's. I've never driven on either, but I did like the RE950's I had on my GTP.

 

you all want the The BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW-2 tires they are good in rain and dry ground!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read the 40+ reviews they are only tires on site with this much feed back (tirerack.com) ive been waiting for my tires to go on my redline so i can get em 124 each, atleast they were last time i checked

look at the tread design so beautiful

 

I think I will go Nitto or BFG G-Force when they release the 215/45 sizes.

Playing around with tire size isn't worth it. Keep the stock size that way it looks right and handles better. The 215/45 is IMO perfect on this rim, bumping up to a 225 isn't going to icrease the width enough to be able to see the difference.

 

I will prob buy a nice set of all seasons for the winter of 06' and then I may go with a higher performance Pirreli summer 07' or maybe soemthin even better... who knows but I know i'll need some more tread come winter next year after i'm done with the stock tires all summer
