Ride Home

Question: I'm flying to a dealership in another state to buy and pick up a new Camaro ZL1-1LE and then drive it home. The drive home is 320 miles. How will the 3R tires (with the 100 tread-ware rating) hold up on a 320 mile journey home? Will the tires overheat at continuous highway speeds? Will there be some useable tread left when I get home? Thanks...

I think they will be just fine...

You will not have any problems unless you encounter heavy rain that those tires were not designed to handle. I would just pull over and wait it out, should that happen.
