Schlock, great to hear your Z06 is back on solid rubber! And, unlike other forums I've experienced, this one is refreshingly supportive. Just an FYI, if the car is stored at the dealer inside where the tires are above 40 degrees, you can drive it home with only traction reduced a little bit (assuming dry pavement). Driving it will keep the tires warm enough to avoid cold damage until you reach home. I helped deliver a Z06 Saturday at my local dealership. The car was kept in the service bay, and the tire temp indicator stayed in the warm range the 15 miles the owner and I drove to the shop he was having Xpel installed at.
