Thanks guys. Had it made by same vendor Wolfco13 used, vendor near Buffalo, NY
It is 3m matrix black (matte textured honeycomb) and gloss fiery orange wrap vinyl. I was not able to determine the manufacturer of the matte NFG center stripe vinyl, so the wife chose the matrix to match the theme of the dash insert.

I am getting a new windshield put in Tuesday... I guess 125,000 miles and 4 rock chips are the limit

Not bad for a windshield replacement in terms of miles. I hate getting them replaced.

Rare poster on this medium.

After 2 consecutive years of monsoon-like conditions when winter finally releases its grip, I am finally sick of letting the weather dictate my trips. I travel 45-100 miles out of town to find a decent car show, with a couple treks to national events out of state. The 7900 miles on the Fifty since the 8/11/16 delivery are mostly highway miles. Let's be honest, the OEM tires are almost racing slicks in the rain. Yes, I know about taking it easy on the throttle, using snow/ice mode, etc., but no need for the white knuckle drive if I'm not tracking it.

Just went thru a divorce and the Michelin PS4S are out of my price range. I hope the General G-Max AS-05 tires that I'm having mounted are a decent choice. Who has switched to all seasons? What is your experience with noise and handling?

I had all seasons on my last Camaro. I can’t speak for the ones you are mounting. I did the Continental Extreme Contact DWS06. As for the road noise, little to no road noise. Handling, you won’t enjoy the dragstrip in them that’s for damn sure. But I found the handling to be great with all seasons.

Adam...no track time in the foreseeable future. Another reason for the all seasons: I no longer have a garage and the car sits outside under a custom fit cover for the winter. I know the OEM runflats aren't supposed to be stored in temps under 20 degrees, and I may need to drive the car every now and then on a cold (but dry) day to keep the battery charged.

You had recommended the Michelins.....maybe next time when my finances stabilize! Thanks for your input.

Then all seasons are the best choice for you. The tires you’re getting seem to be gaining a following. The other all season I would recommend are the Continental Extreme Contact DWS06.

I did recommend the Michelin’s if you wanted to keep summer sport tire and get away from run flats. That’s what I will swap to at some point. Looking at getting a second set of wheels the OEM black variant of our wheels and put the Michelin’s on those.

And most welcome! Hope all works out for you.

I haven't used any all season rubber, but I do have the PS4S on some 1LE replica wheels in the 1LE sizing. They're awesome.

I’m going with the Continental DWS06 here pretty soon. At least before I head out for CamaroFest in July.

Tires are like shoes, you gotta have ‘em and everybody else’s stink.

(Hopefully no one takes me seriously on that statement.)

Sounds like someone needs some odereaters lol.

And curious your take on the DWS06 with that drive down for Fest.

I went with Cooper ZEON RS3-G1
Ultra High Performance All-Season tires and haven't had any bad issues with them. 100% improvement in rain no white knuckle driving though water on the road surface. Improved ride,etc. Any all season tire is improvement over the goodyear summer tire in rain.

I got the Continentals last July just before driving to CamaroFest. They did just fine. Quite stable in the rain we hit on the way back. About 10K miles on them now.
