I am due for tires on my E82 before the fall/winter hits. Currently running Michelin PS AS3+, was planning on just getting the new PS AS4, however the CC3 Sport is intriguing.

Dunno if they'll be available before the rain hits though. Any insider info on the ETA of them?

The dealer said I have to buy a set of CC2, CC1, and PS4 before I get an allocation for CC4S.

Also I have to agree not to sell it within 6 months.

Might put a set on the parent's new used ML350.

I know it's just the tail end of summer but thought I would ask if there are any deals for winter tires at the moment?

EDIT: I did make a post last year beginning of the fall season where you were able to stack a discount on PMC tires with a money back rebate from Continental

Next big promo push is probably in or around September long weekend. Otherwise, keep tabs on RedFlagDeals for promotions.

PMCTire did a stackable promotion via eBay / Continental just this spring - there were some good deals but I didn't need new tires. I did help a friend go through the whole process as he never bought tires online before.

The last time I got winters + rims from PMC they had a deal where the mount and balance was free. So it was basically an extra $100 off plus what I was able to sell my old rims & tires for.

a review i saw with one guy working with michelin said cc3 is an evolution where cc3 S is the next-gen compound/design etc

but yeah, seems more like 2026/2027 season NA debut and they're gutting the 17" options, boo

So the corvette forum (mostly all old expired geezers that drive their 400hp cars to get groceries) are anti putting snow tires on corvettes.

Need RS "expert advice":



The above would also give me one more excuse to take it up north for ice racing

Since you failed me for suggesting you guys were being proactive, and here you are asking if you should buy winter tires, I highly recommend getting winter tires for your old man car haha

I suspect balancing a tire that's skinny enough for good winter grip while still being wide enough to handle the power may be difficult.

Personally, I don't see the point of getting ultra wide winter tires for a high torque RWD sports car. A set of tires would probably cost 80% of what a winter beater would cost you anyway. It isn't about whether you should drive your Vette on cold, wet roads. It's purely a matter of costs and practicality.

(And do they even make any decent winter tires for a Vette?)

I'd vote for a winter beater.
