Sucks man. I just blew my rear 295/30 18" tire last Thursday. I also had signed up to take it to the track last weekend but had to cancel. New tire comes in tomorrow.

Alot of corvette tires wear out prematurely on the inside edge. When I was dating my ex we went thru alot of tires that way on her c5

Damn, I just saw this thread. Do you think this is because we lowered the car so much and the tires are so big? I remember seeing inside rubs.
