This is disheartening the 5th Gen V6 RS came with staggered wheels and high performance summer tires. now its starting to look like the 6th Gen V6 and T4 will not get any thing close to the same treatment as V8.

If you plan on driving in the snow, you should probably get a set of winter tires regardless of the engine.
Sounds like they're a high performance all-season, which is something that I hadn't really heard of until today. I wonder what the performance trade-off will be with the F1 all-seasons vs the summer tires.

I would argue they are unnecessary for the SS unless it's being tracked. |

What's with the red stripe on that black 5 spoke? Haven't seen that before.

I believe thats a typo.
it should read RS, not LS. the RS package on the 1LT/2LT upgrades the wheels to the 20" offering.

A better choice, would have been Pirelli P-Zero runflats. Good record for reliability. |

Not all of us live in a warm climate. Not all of us race our cars and all weather is what we want. I didn't buy a 5th gen because I could not get hid headlights without summer tires. I bought two genesis coupes and would have most likely bought two Camaro's .

And we can finally ROTATE OUR TIRES NOW! The runflat summer tires are a huge blow. They cost an arm and a leg and have horrendous performance...because they are SUMMER TIRES. They perform horribly in all but perfect conditions, which don't exist on the street. Summer tires should be an option. This will be another brand new car that requires a $1,000 investment immediately to become drivable.

If you want drag tires or track tires, buy them separately for yourself. GM should outfit the car with proper street tires from the beginning and not make their intelligent consumers buy proper tires after they just spent $40,000 on a brand new car. You sound like a guy that'll agree with anything GM does just because it's GM
