92 C4 Tires

External Since: Dec 25, 2007 Posts: 4

Hi,

I did a search and didn't see this discussion.

I have a 92 LT1 Coupe.

I bought it with 106K and just a few thousand mi on the current set,
BF Goodrich g-Force T/A KDWS 275/40-17 ZR rated.

I now have 135K mi and it looks like I'll need rubber next year.

I rotated them once.

So I guess I'lll get about 40K on them. They have worn real evenly. I
rarely turn off the ASR and burn them !

Any experiences and/or advice ??

Here's what Tire Rack has as I want all season:

Thanks, Vern

Yes...those Conti's were rated high....and they are $124 on tire
rack ! Here's the link....why are those links broken ?

Never had that problem before.
