TireCradles for wide tires C7

fev1942 · 10-20-2014, 10:44 PM

I have just purchased the 2014 Coupe LT1 and park it in a heated basement on a concrete floor. I was sent and ad for these TireCradles to park a car with wide tires so they will not get temporary or permanent flat spots if the car is parked for some time. I plan on letting it sit for awhile and drive when I want. My question is has anyone had their wide tires and this includes the run on flat tires get flat spots in them. I want to avoid this problem, but do not want to jack it up all the time. I'd like to hear from anyone that has used these TireCradles or anything on flat spots in tires. Thanks, Erwin

Don't know much about TireCradles. I used Flatstoppers from Brute Industries - http://www.raceramps.com/ - with my ZL1 and have bought another set for my C7. They have two sizes (widths)...need to use the wider ones.

"Jacking it up" wreaks havoc with the suspension.
