Pickn some Tires

[Insomnya3AM]

I'm looking to get new tires all around. It's a 1994 Camaro Z28 6-speed. What do you believe I should go with? It's going to be my daily driver but ride quality is not a concern. The Z will be autocrossed, drag race, and generally driven very aggresively. Handling and traction are very important. These tires will be driven in the sun, rain, ice and snow. Pretty much asking for the perfect tire. Let me know your opinions. These will be mounted on the stock wheels. Should I go with the stock size, or would a slight adjustment be advantageous? Thanks

We gotta meet up I need to see this car. I love the hood on it. Yeah get some good tires, not sure what kind to tell you to get though. As long as they hold up when u do those burnouts

Of course dude. After this weekend we'll put something together. I'm going to grab something sticky so I can pull a few G's

i have the BFG G-Force TA kDWS tires on my SS now (dry wet snow) it's an "ultra high performance all season" for year round, i think it's a great tire. it has stood up to my abusive driving very well! and the wear on them isn't too bad. also, i have never been stuck with my car!...sometimes i've had "traction issues" but never have i gotten completly stuck with my car! and i drive all year round unfortionatly!....so the kDWS's are my vote for an all year tire!

[BlackbirdWs6zzz]

what size rims. If you want good all around i would go with some g-Force T/A KD . Heres a link. They are expensive but will last you a while!

Your size is either 235/55-16 or 245/50-16 . Check it out. Do you have stock rims??

[BlackbirdWs6zzz]

Here are the ones Matt is talking about http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....rce+T%2FA+KDWS

[BlackbirdWs6zzz]

[BlackbirdWs6zzz]

by the way.....GOOD PICK WITH THE M6 baby. you make my heart rejoice!

[SS4Matt]

well he said all year round tire..that's why i say the kDWS...im getting the kDW2 for my new rims cause they're a "summer tire" but for year round i'de say go with the kDWS

[BlackbirdWs6zzz]

yeah. definitly go for the all season cuz it's your daily. But those other tires look nasty sweet. Rarrrr. Yeah so probably the KDWS

[92redbird]

Ouch those KDW's didn't get good reviews on tire rack

[SS4Matt]

yeah the kDW2's are a pretty naSSty lookin tread pattern!! that's why im gonna order some for my new rims...probably gonna order them tomarrow at work (we're a tire-rack distributor) so i get a few bucks off per tire...makes it worth my while....then i'll have my rims ready ASAP

[Insomnya3AM]

I'm so happy with the M6, it's incredible

I'm going to go with the snow g-forces. Thanks for the links guys, it looks like a very soild tire for what I need. I'm going to get a set of wheels and tires for the summer.

Hey Matt, where do you work at? Could you get me a set of the tires that you have?
I'd need them mounted, I don't have a machine.
Lemme know. Thanks homie

[SS4Matt]

we don't do any rims or mounting or balancing or anything...we just have "connections" i guess lol to tire-rack so i can get a few bucks off...i think i paid $540 for all 4 of my kDWS's (that's for 275/40Zr17's though) and then mounting and balancing at just about any tire place is usually $15 per tire/wheel so i paid like $600 even for all 4 mounted and balanced.....

but if you buy the tires from like discount tire or belle or something like that...usually mounting and balancing is free....
