hmm. lol. when i get my LS1, i think im just gonna buy either 2 sets of tires, or those BFG's that have like 3 lines down them, barely legal.

 

2 sets of tires meaning 2 sets of rims.. like a nice looking 7.5-8" rim, then use my dad's second set of vette rims for Slicks, for when i know it'll be nice for a couple days.

 

Just don't hit any ice, my friend hit a patch of ice going 75 in his 'stang and met the wall.

 

specter did the same. cept he hit a tractor trailer if i remember correctly.. lol.. unless that is, if your talking about specter.

 

that actually wasnt on drag radials.
that was hankook ventus something or others. hardest compound tires i have ever used. I will never own a set of hankooks again as long as i live. when the temp was in the low 40s those things would go goofy around corners, they were that hard.

 

i like Kumhos and Yokohama's(sp?).

only thing i didnt like about kumhos, was during the summer, when the car sat over nite, you could actually see, where the tire formed with the ground a little, like you move car a foot forward, and there's still indents(like, as in, 1/4 of the lug/block) in the tread from the gravel and what not.

 

I have two sets of tires, although I would never drive with my "DOT approved slicks" they're the M/T ET streets, so they have 3 lines down them and are pretty much a full slick compound. Never will those touch regular roads...But I get by in the winter with my BFG G-Forca T/A's they work when they need to and I don't have another car to take.

 

my 94' V6 sucks on wet roads i cant tell you how many times ive spun out or hydroplaned
its scary

 

Sounds like somebody either needs to lay off the gas when it's wet or get some new tires that are a bit better in the rain.

 

I have Kumho ecsta asx tires on my camaro. They have a real thick and deep notch in them to throw out water. I've never had a problem with wet roads (I'm in louisiana, and it rains pretty often). Louisiana also has crappy roads with lots of standing water. I've never had a scary indicent, but you have to use common sense somtimes - not just with camaros but with any car in wet conditions. Don't fly through a big puddle of water.

Sometimes I lose traction on wet roads on purpose, though. It's fun to slide around a turn a little bit sometimes (from a stop). The truth is, you can lose traction and get into trouble on dry roads with a camaro, too. It's a rear wheel drive, positraction (on the V8s), solid live axel, torquey car. Again, common sense and a tame right foot are all you need to avoid a problem.
