Thanks brother, got it! Appreciate the quick response.

295/35 and 265/35 Nitto 555s work fine on stock rims too.
Just put a set on and really like them so far after 100 miles. So much better than the run flats.

That's good to know, I may go a tad wider in both the front the rear next time.

Have you tried any timed 0-60 runs with the new tires? I would love to replace the all seasons the prior owner put on my Camaro because they are pretty worthless when you try and launch the car. Been putting it off to save some cash for the Michelin's, but these sound like they might be worth a try.

Okay so I did some runs tonight. I just left it in touring mode and floored it several times. My best time, two times in a row, was 4.2 seconds. The other times were in that range. This was with the top down.

This is comparing them to the stock Eagle F1's, Nitto 555's, BFGoodrich G-Force T/A's, Pirelli P Zero's, Toyo Proxies and Continental DWS 06's which I had on my previous Camaro. All of the aforementioned tires had great qualities overall but usually fell flat in one or two departments. Like the Toyo's were great for 6 months then started to turn rock hard, and the Nitto's were garbage in the rain. But these Generals? They have virtually the same grip in the wet and dry, cold or hot, they actually do decent in snow, and after a year and a half of useage and a Syracuse NY winter and are just as tacky as when I got em last year (And I still have 60% tread life left!) There may be better tires for the track or as dedicated snow tires, but nothing I've ever driven actually does everything reasonably well. I don't think I will buy anything else going forward. Literally cannot recommend these tires enough!

Yes, the AS-05s are amazing. My mom needed to replace the Michelins that came on her Tesla, so I thought I'd put those on there since she doesn't need a "Y" rated tire, and the grip is just as good if not better than the Michelins. Her efficiency went down, but I think thats mainly due to the fact that we went with a wider tire, hence more resistance.

Cool. Thanks for the info. I will most likely go that size when time for new tires.

General makes good UTR tires.

Sounds like a winner!

Just wondering how they wear. Will they last as long as the OEM GY? I noticed a 360AA A wear rating. Seems low.

A 360 wear rating is high not low! A 200 or 220 would be low!

That's better than OEM...which is 300

Thanks. Guess for a performance tire that is pretty good.

Wear ratings are arbitrary.
