New Tires for my 2SS
I know this thread was probably posted over 1,000 times but before you roast me and publicly destroy me.
I had a quick inquiry that I would like to be specific to me. I recently ran to the threads with the stock tires that came on my 2SS, I was wondering if anyone had a great tire in mind that they would be willing to recommend. But I have a question to those who live in bad winter states, I live in NJ so it's not that bad, but we do get some interesting winters. Should I go for a Summer Tire again or go for an all season. Realistically I would love to buy a summer and winter wheel but I'm not 100% sure I have the cash for it. Basically, im taking all recommendations on tires that look and perform awesomely (R888?) on the SS (possibly winter friendly). |

Gotta pay to play. Get two sets of tires if you drive the Camaro with regularity in the winter.
I went with all-season tires, the General G-max AS-05.

2 sets is your best option if you want to stay on the road. My SS is good int he snow as long as it's less than 3 inches. Past that any drifting snow can make things interesting.

Summer tire period on a true performance car. An AS tire will change how it handles and steers. I have Michelin Pilot Sport 4S's waiting to go on mine.

I am leaning toward this tire, myself. As they are not runflats, do you intend to carry a spare and associated tools?

I already carry an electric pump and good quality tire plug set.

I have a set of used Pirelli winter tires for sale for stock wheels. I can do $500 for them and we can meet in the middle. I'm over by allentown.
