But just the same, all input is welcomed and use full for future C4 owners.. it would be great to get feedback from a C4 owner on the club or a member of the forum who has tried different tyres to the above.

Thanks M



Michael I was  C4 owner for many years as was Gazza "vetnut" and both of us have run numerious other performance cars and still do, 17, 18, 19' and 20's  all sorts of tyres combo's.

Well, its been a very long time since my last posting and I have finally gone with the Nittos Nt05 front and rear for the beast... Yes, i'm still in two minds about selling this car, but tyres are a must as it wasn't getting traction with the tired hardened Goodyears.. Steve and the boys from S&R Performance were great in organising the fine details and getting the car sorted.

Here are some photos from today's exercise.... the car now is allot safer to drive.. and i mean allot!.....












if anyone needs any assistance with their corvette, dont hesitate to contact Steve at S& R Performance
