I just don't get why they would discontinue our tires! How many cars run our wheels?! Between our cars, '96 Grand Sports and Collector Editions, Z28 SS Camaro's, PLUS I see our rims all the time on other C4s... WTF!!!!

I guess even with all that, it's not enough volume to make it worth while to a mega-company....I know this stinks...I had to buy a new set of rears back in the fall of 07 so I'm set for awhile...but after that I'll have to figure out what to do.

On the other hand there will be a glut of nearly perfect 17" OEM ZR-1 wheels on the market......
