I just got back this am...........the dry grip of these are on par and surpass a few SUMMER performance tires...........lots of PSS technology trickled down to these.
More to come.........I took a couple of laps in a non stock ZR1 with Tommy Milner, he was kinda fast

I'd like these for my GS. Like to drive it when there is no salt on the road.

As you rode in a ZR1 I assume outfitted with these, that should tell us a little something shouldn't it, sizewise?

I assume that means you will be at the reveal prior to the show. If so will see you there.

It would have been nice if they were , but they were the std Michelin® PS2™ run-flat tires (P285/30ZR19, front; P335/25ZR20, rear)

What I heard was that the c7 sizes will be the same as the base c6. This was at the lunch provided by Michelin.
