      Are you the guy I let Jaime swap rears with at Covert? I heard it was not tires but mechanical on that car.

      FYI, any Gen 3-5 rear wheels will all fit the same. Opens up your borrowing spectrum.

      I have totally seen tires flat spot when sitting for that long. Radials will definitely flat spot. My brother did it on his vette after 8 months or so of sitting. Car drove fine but got a little harmonic going at about 55 or so, IIRC.

      Good luck.

      I think I’m having an issue with one or both of my rear tires…before I drag it over to the dealer to talk to them I was hoping to borrow (for 15 minutes) a set of Gen V wheels and tires just to see if my harshness goes away. Sitting for 2 years may have flat spotted the tires…I just wanna be sure. Thanks so much!
      I’ll drive to your house…leave a deposit and drive them back. 🙂
