Good grief, the tires - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Brad Sewell · 02-20-2012

I recently bought 1990 ZR-1 #454. It still has the original Gatorbacks on the front and they an update.

The problem is I can't find a lot of matching sets in the factory sizes. I certainly don't intend to offend anyone with my first post, but I would really prefer American tires. And while the car will not be a daily driver, it will see a fair share of spirited Saturday and Sunday drives so I don't think street/drag tires are practical.

So what are you guys doing? Biting the bullet for $1400 F1's? Running non-matching sets? Does anybody use a slightly different size like 335/35s?
