Sizes for the standard Corvette Stingray use a single tread rubber compound that blends dry traction, wet traction and tread life while the sizes for Z51 equipped cars feature side-by-side tread compounds that deliver near-racing-slick dry grip and handling levels, without abandoning tread life and wet handling.īoth tires feature twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wound Twaron cord. Wide circumferential grooves and lateral notches help channel water through the footprint to maintain wet traction.
