Question about 2017 SS tires

Hello all. I just had a question about tires I just put on my SS. I bought a staggered set of KUMHO Majesty 9 SOLUS TA91's. I have them on the car now and have put about 500 or so miles on them. They are pretty good in the rain so far. Now I'm 64 and faaar from an old geezer lol, but my pulling up next to somebody and sayin LETS GO are pretty much behind me. And I don't plan on taking her to the track anytime soon. I had a 17 LT1 that I only put 20,000 miles on in 5 years so I don't do a lot of driving. So will I be ok with the Kuhmo's? Now I know they don't stick as well as the stock SS tires, I find that out once in awhile when I get on it a little lol, well a lot LOL!! But for just driving around and long trips are they going to be decent tires? And will I be screwing up the car any by running these tires on it?

Long and drawn out I know and I apologize for that Lol. My 1st SS. Been in Camaro's since 82 but this is my 1st as* kicker. Thank you guys and ladies for any input.

These are midrange all-season tires, they won't do any harm to the car, no need to worry about that , but you will obviously not break 0-60 records or pull 1g or more lateral acceleration in corners on these 560 treadwear all-seasons.

Judging from tirerack.com reviews and the tread pattern, wet or somewhat colder Virginia weather will not be a problem (not recommended for snow, though). They also cost half as much as the typical high performance summer tires many use here in the forums, so they look like a great value for mostly "grand touring" use.

The Kuhmo's will be more than adequate for your driving needs.
