I just put on some Toyo Proxes 4+ A/S on my SS, so far so good. Roughly 950 for all 4. Another option for the OP to look at.

Conti doesn't sell either of those tires anymore.

Referring to the Michelin Pilot sport AS 3+ there.
My world is more like avalonandl's. Seriously, can you get that kind of life out of the Michelins? I don't think I've ever had a tire on any car make it to 45k miles! |

Yep! That specific Michelin anyway. I can't say for sure on a Camaro SS, but as he said, with regular driving, no burnouts or tracking the car, I don't see why you wouldn't get 40-50k like on any other car. It's a good tire. Ranked #1 in it's category on tirerack I believe.

The biggest factor is rotation. Take the tires off the driven axle will do wonders for tire life.

Yep I do, they are decent tires, the aren't canyon carvers, but they handle well, they aren't drag tires, I have have lit off the traction control with them, but overall a good quiet tire with good life. The are excellent in the rain.

are we talking about side-to-side rotation when it comes to staggered tire size? Don't know how to get my bigger tires moved to the front!

That's the problem with staggered wheels/tires. You can't rotate them. I don't think going from side to side does much of anything. Getting two extra rear wheels and mounting them on the front, so you have a square setup, is really the best option. From what I've heard, the cost of the wheels can get paid off within a set or two of tires.
