I'm assuming they just use a stock image of a tire lol
Because as long as I don't get raped on the shipping, I'll be buying the tires from here. Even cheaper than Amazon.
EDIT: $28 shipping. Sounds like a deal.

Anything under a $1000 for a set of OEM rubber...I'm in!

Just curious, you guys that are buying these tires online, what are you paying to have them mounted / balanced and all that good stuff, or are you capable of doing that yourselves or through friends? I ask because the last set I bought (Goodyears) mounted and balanced were just over $1100.

the other thing you can do it go to the ZL1 rear tire its the same only a 305

Be careful. The tire pictured is NOT the G:2 version that is what actually comes on the 1LE and ZL1.

What is pictured is the original Supercar tire, similar to what the 5.4L GT500's used.

At minimum, verify exactly what tire they're selling.

Well I think it's just the wrong picture. Because it says G2 in the description.
Hopefully someone gives confirmation before I need to buy them in the next month or so.

Cost me $70 last time for all 4 mounted.

There's something wrong unless im missing something. Those aren't our tires. This is our tread pattern.

Jeff_SS · 02-25-2015, 06:50 PM

^ Yeah but I mean, how many times have you seen a website just use a stock photo for something and they normally have the caption "image might not be an accurate representation of said product" or something along those lines.

It's probably just an image of a tire, not the actual tire described.
I mean the GM part number is right there, and it says G2 in the description too.

GONIF · 02-26-2015, 10:23 AM

I see no problem if the factory stock numbers are correct, they probably just have the wrong photo . A simple phone call would solve the problem.

Nope. Just a regular local wheel/tire/brake/alignment shop.
And I said I'll tip you $20 if you're careful and don't scratch the wheels. He took his time, used a cloth or two and didn't scratch them.

Anyone end up ordering from this site? They really do seem to have the best pricing.

Believe it or not you may want to check your local Chevy dealership. I just bought 4 new F1s for my 1LE and they were selling for $229 each. If you can negotiate down the high price of the mounting/balancing/disposal it is a pretty good deal and you are not dealing with shipping or using another vehicle to transport the tires around to get them installed.

I only do 3500 miles a year, when tire time comes. I am going Hankook Ventus square setup or Nitto NT01 ZL1 setup
