After only 5 days on track and less than 5k miles on the ZL1 1LE, now showing cords on 3R set #2. I just don’t want anyone buying these thinking they’re a slightly more grippy Supercar G3’s.
They're AMAZING on track...but that comes at a price. Don't buy these for daily driving. You will be disappointed.

DO buy these as an alternative to Sport Cup 2, or Trofeo R. They communicate, slip predictably, and grip like stink...even when hot.

Regarding front wear - have you had an alignment done in track settings? I discovered about a .25º of toe out, when Chevy recommends .05 and I suspect that is contributing to inside tread wear.
