That's my question too.

I found 20" snow tires. BUT, do 18" snow tires PERFORM better than 20" snow tires??

Maybe I should just get 18" snow tires? But, of course I would have to get new 18" rims to match the 18" tires.

This will be my Daily Driver. I am getting this Camaro to drive it.

I don't know about all seasons in the winter time up here in Cleveland. Plus given the rear wheel aspect of the Camaro, it could be a problem.

What do you think?

It was posted a while back. Doing a bit of math shows the percentages used to come up with invoice price, dealer price, and employee price, and I used those percentages to come up with the LPO prices (the cells in red are the ones I came up with, and thus am not 100% sure of their accuracy.)

Ok, so I'm not going to be a lot of help here, as I do plan on garaging the Camaro when its snowy and/or cold. When I bought the Camaro, I knew I wasn't going anywhere in the winter, so I also bought a truck.

That being said...

I think I'd rather have 18" wheels with large tires on my winter vehicle, should I slide against the curb. Don't want to scuff up rims. Rubber is much cheaper to replace.

I understand and did work your percentages. Almost a 3% from dealer to hold back I was thinking it was a standard 2% but this is almost 10 years ago now.

Mind me asking where in colorado you are? Flying out there for business next month.

Ok, I hope I can explain this correctly. Based on the information available:

Invoice on Trim (1LT, 2SS, etc) is 96% of MSRP.
Invoice on Options (NPP, Paint, etc) is 91% of MSRP.

Dealer price on Trim is 93% of MSRP.
Dealer price on Options is 88% of MSRP.

Employee price on Trim is 96.5% of Invoice
Employee price on Options is 96% of Invoice.

I suspect LPO pricing has a larger margin, since the dealers install it, but for my purposes, I just used the above values in my spreadsheet.

Denver metro area, though on the outskirts.

I don't have the best credit but through navy federal I am getting 2.99 percent at 72 months. Me and my wife purchased a home about 1 year ago and purchasing the home really brung down our credit a lot to almost 610 from 690 but it is starting to go back up. I applied in april for an auto loan just to see where I was at and my interest was 13.24% for 40,000. There was no way I was going to take this loan so I just have been watching my credit for the past few months slowly but steadily rise back to pre mortgage levels. When my car was built last week I applied for the auto loan and was approved for the 2.99%. Not the best loan but I'm happy with it.
