Tires
Gentlemen, With Winter almost over it is now time to think about tires. I have received many PM regarding does the ZR-1 Net Registry have a tire discount? I don't know if the ZR-1 Net Registry has a contract with anyone, I have an account that I have let my ZR-1 Brothers use to get tires at a wholesale cost. If you need tires here is some of the pricing.
Price is per tire. Nitto NT555 G2The next generation summer performance tire. 315 /35 R17 106W XL BSWUTQG: 320AAA AZ 6 OH 7 TX 4 $175.90 Nitto NT 555R Drag RadialGet the competitive advantage at the track and on the street 315 /35 AZ 34 OH 2 TX 50$176.88 Nitto NT05R Drag RadialRoad-legal competition drag radial.P 315 /35 R17 93 SL AZ 2 OH 62 TX 4$182.36 Nitto MotivoUltra High Performance (UHP) and all-weather traction. 315 /35 R17 106W XL BSWUTQG: 560AA AZ 2 OH 4 TX 4$183.93 Nitto NT05 Maximum performance summer tire. 315 /35 R17 102W SL BSWUTQG: 200AA AZ 4 OH 4 TX 4$195.49 Mickey Thompson ET Street S/SD.O.T. aprroved "Street/Strip" tire.P 315 /35 R17 102 SL RBLUTQG: AZ 2 OH 23 TX 18$212.00 Nitto NT01D.O.T. approved competition radial.P 315 /35 R17 102Z SL BSWUTQG: AZ 14 OH 4 TX 8$220.63 Nitto NT01D.O.T. approved competition radial. 315 /35 R17 102W SL BSWUTQG: 100AAA AZ 4 OH 40 TX 5$226.63 Mickey Thompson ET Street RRadial construction, D.O.T. approved "race" tire.P 315 /35 R17 93 SL RBLUTQG: AZ 0 OH 4 TX 0$238.90 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D 3European-Designed Ultra Performance Radial.

Re: Tires
I'm prolly gonna be calling ya.
You drive on the Nitto "G2s" and from personal experience (following you in heavy rain going to BG) they do much better in those conditions than my 555/555r combo did/does. Do you recommend G2s on all 4 corners - even to drag race? Or would you prefer to let the G2s "plow" a path for (say) the 555r or NT05s (rear)? Your experience w/ the variety of combos would be interesting to hear.

With how much you drag race get the standard NT05 for the front and the rears. |

Re: Tires
Got a great deal thru Robert for a set
of Nitto 555 G2s for my other toy, a BMW 540i/6 M-Sport, Dinan. (Dinan is to BMW as Callaway is to Corvette...) I've been researching for weeks and his connection was the best price, by a wide margin, that I could find! The 555 G2s get great reviews and they make 'em in ZR-1 sizes too! Thanks Robert!!! |

Sumitomos have been installed on two previous ZR-1's that I have owned and they were the first things to go as well. Just my two cents.

Re: Tires
Sumitomo HRTZ’s are a value tire and customer surveys rank it 10 out of 15 of the high performance tires. Basically it is a good tire, but not an excellent one. It is a best seller because of its low price point and not a max performance tire. If you are not doing any extreme spirited driving and keep to the speed limits, then you’ll be OK.
