What Tires
My car is not on the train yet so I'll sit here and ask more dumb questions.
Anyone know what tires the GT will come with?

They are all Pirelli 18" or 19" except for GT verts with the brembo package, they come with Goodyears.

Frome the pics I've seen, you seem to be right. The reasoning behind that has me perplexed though...

I just looked it up on the 2011 Spec sheet.

The Goodyears have been re-compounded this year, supposed to be stickier.

Ok, but why the difference for verts?

Maybe noise?

Maybe noise, maybe less chassis stiffness?
