Im running these right now on my Impala(245/45/18). I absolutely LOVE them, they handle very well in the rain and even better when its dry. They're super quite on the road.

I love them. No real performance compromise from factory tires. Rated to last much longer and handle real well in the rain. I do recommend. I bought mine from discount tire. They have a bunch of reviews on their website.

We have Pole Positions on the Z28 and they are outstanding. Have a 40,000 mile warranty on them too. I've been wondering how they are on GXPs though... so I'm interested in hearing a review specific to a GXP myself.

I wish somebody would make a sticky about tire reviews for our cars. I'd be really interested in knowing your opinion bigalnash about your tires in around 2 years when I'll be replacing my tires.

Wow that's an expensive tire! For that price, I'd just stick with the RE050As.

I'm actually looking at these right now:



Pirelli PZero Nero M&S/M+S: $66.54 each

Unfortunately they don't have them in 225/50-18 for your rears. I bought two extra fronts I'll be putting out back (for rotation and extra tire options) so I'm not too worried.

X2 on these tires. Best tires I ever had on my Comp G, and that's a hell of a price.
