Tire Buyer has a 10% discount now. The site says 4 tires in the stock sizes are about $610.00.

Good luck with the purchase.

I can’t use tirebuyer.com for my location, but thanks for sharing as it seems a good option for those in the US.

Hi! I am new - I am located in Europe (Austria). I look for a ZR-1 in Europe. The tire question is due for me, too. Since we need Y (speed max 300) - do you know any tire open for this speed index (your tire recommendation is for max 270) - and open for distribution in Europe, too? If not: Do you have any recommendation for alternative rims on the ZR-1....sorry - Corvette Europe doesn't respond to such questions! Helmut

Keith- Are you, or anyone else, running Torque Thrust ll’s. If so I’d like to see a picture of that.
I like the “old school” look.
It looks like the consensus is Nittos, but I really like my Toyo R888’s. Soft, Super sticky, and after two years at 5-6K mi. Per yr. they have plenty of tread life left. Two more yrs. and they’re aged out anyway.
I can’t see buying a long wearing tire for a ZR-1 that doesn’t get lots of miles put on it. Not cost effective. JMHO.

Helmut, to my knowledge in the original 315/35/17 tire only the GoodyearF1 GS-D3 is available in a Y rating. Not sure if they are available in Europe and even here are not currently in production. If they will allow a slightly larger tire that many successfully use here the Michelin Pilot Super Sports and Pirelli P-Zeros are available in 335/35/17. Although I suspect departure from original size in not allowed in Europe. Maybe some of our European members can chime in with their experience. Good luck.
