My C6 needs rear tires after only 14,000 easy miles. Anyone have suggestions on suitable replacements?

Welcome to the forum!
In addition to checking on the C6 forum - you may want to check the ratings from the Hi-Performance tire tests; I replaced the Goodyears on my C4 with Yokohamas (the highest rated at the time). The Goodyears were very sticky on dry pavement but sucked in the rain.
