I have the best wife in the world.

So I replaced the factory runflats with
the new version Continental extreme contact 02
NICE street tire!

the missus helped me with the install
she looks at the new mount and says,
"you should have bought the Apex VR5 19" rims."

I thought for sure she would have balked at the $3500

Looking Good Crossram

congrats and yes, some of us guys are lucky that way. my wife would sign off on any mod and not even want to drive it. Even likes to ride in the racecar.

Sold my Z28 back in the 90's to help pay for my first house. Had a corvette a few cars before that.

My ex-wife promised me that after the kids were grown and out of the house that I could buy another corvette.

But she divorced me before they moved out...

Would you mind sharing the size of tires for front and rear? Will be doing this at some point with my 2SS as well.

Nice... My wife is the same way. She never says a word about spending money on my passions. Of course it goes both ways...

I used those same tires on my Z06 and loved them but they are still considered Summer only tires?

Nope, the DWS 06 Extreme Contacts are an all season tire.
