Rick -- The Goodyear Eagle F1's on the ZL1 will thump for a couple of miles. They even do it a little in the summer when it has sat for 3 to 4 weeks. I usually take it pretty easy until the oil temp has come up. 20 MPH for the first half mile and then 45 MPH for the next mile and a half. The air pressure will usually come up a pound and the thumping has stopped in that amount of time. Then it is go time.

They are 20 in wheels I think.

A few prayers, positive thoughts, good vibes, whatever you got, for my son. He is in a military hospital in Texas tonight with abdominal pain & bleeding from his nose & rectum. Not sounding like a good thing.

The longest my Camaro has sat is 6 weeks. I remember back in my selling tires days that Pirellis were the worst as far as flat spotting! After about 5 miles they are fine, but sometimes the first 4 miles are pretty rough.

If I stored it longer, I would consider doing that.

Yup, takes me about 5 miles or so until the tires smooth out.
