I have had Goodyears on my vette and they suck got rid of them and went to Michelins. I have Michelin on the XLR much better ride.Ok it looks like run flats are the safe bet.... So is it Goodyear or Michelin or what else is out there.

You will want to make sure the shop you choose understands the need for frame pucks to protect the lower rocker panel. The guy I chose has done some late model Vettes and was aware of the issue.
Anybody using the hockey puck and eye-bolt idea?
That's some good information there!
My XLR has never been serviced anywhere other than at the Cadillac dealer, and I plan to keep it that way! But this is good information to have in the event that some unforeseen problem might necessitate a service visit somewhere else.
I'd be willing to bet that there are several people on this forum who don't always use a Cadillac dealership ..... We have Jimmy Johnson Chevrolet here who has some of the best techs in the world .... they have assured us that there are a few guys there that are more than capable of working on the XLR ..... Just check in your area ...
I do most of the work on my XLR. Anything that needs to be done at the dealer I also take my XLR to my local Chevrolet dealer. They have some very good Corvette techs who have worked on my car.
Thanks for the information Uintah. I was unaware that aluminum pucks were available (I failed to scroll down on cclarks link). Any preference between rubber over aluminum? Does one fit more snug than the other? I can just see myself driving away from the tire store with them still on. Anybody have tire change horror stories they would like to share?
