Re: ZR-1 Tires
Nick,
Thanks for sharing and the timing is perfect. I need some new tires to replace the now old and hard, with no traction at all Pirelli P7000s on my stock wheels. The P7000s came on my Z when I bought it in 2003 so they are way over due even thought there is so much thread left. I was really considering drag radials and will have to research my best options. |

Those of you who don't really see rain in your driving will really like the NT-05's I think.

Re: ZR-1 Tires
The spec out about 200 less at discount tire than the GS-D3 shipped from tire rack.
But they have a tread depth of 7.2/32" and the GS-D3 is 10/32" So they will wear out faster and may be more expensive in the long run. Just not sure. |

Re: ZR-1 Tires
of course the GSC's on my car now have craploads of tread left but are hard as a rock and 11 years old...so maybe a tire that wears out faster is a good thing...except for the NCRS types.

Re: ZR-1 Tires
The one thing I place on the bottom of the priority list is tread wear...I want stick, bite and performance as #1. If I get 10-12K miles I am happy
