I know it’s controversial to put all seasons on a Corvette, but my god are they fantastic. Unless you drive exclusively on the track, you’ll love these. I live in a state where a sunshine and 80+ degree days are limited, and potholes are plentiful. I swapped out the OEM run flats with these and it made a world of difference.

Pros: fantastic, world of difference

I got around 23k miles from my continentals. I switched to the Michelin defender AT tire and I'm going on 60k miles with tread left. Insignificant impact on range.

Pros: long lifespan, insignificant impact
Mileage: 96560 km

That's my recommendation having just swapped my 18" Michelins for winter prep with 4/32, 49,000 miles on them, balanced/aligned 2x in their lifespan (1 when I got it, they came with the car, 2 at 7,000 miles)

Pros: long lifespan
Mileage: 78858 km

Continental Tires

Continental all the way. Their soft compound is objectively grippier than the MaxxGrip compound. And their super soft is wizard demon magic that grips like no ones buisness but is suprisingly long wearing.

Pros: grippier than MaxxGrip, long wearing

I have to recommend Michelin County Rocks. 26x1.75, smooth enough for paved roads just enough tread for some gravel. Cheap and durable.

Pros: smooth, cheap, durable

The best middle ground would be your UHP All Seasons category. Not as performance oriented as summer. But also not as costly. Michelin Pilot Sport 4 A/S, Conti DWS06+ for example.

Pros: All season
Cons: Not summer performance

All weathers weren't worth it in my case, I'm not hard on my tires at all and I logged 35-45k On the ones I bought last year and they are already at 2/32'nds. I went back to all seasons this year, due to I'd rather get the 80,000km's with the Michelins I bought. Nor did I really notice a difference in traction/handling between All Weathers and All Seasons.

Pros: none
Cons: wore out quickly
Mileage: 40000 km
